[aisle] Graphic Novel standards support? Evidence for grant

[Eti Berland]

Dear Lori,

I hope you have much success with your grant. Expanding your graphic novel
collection can be a game changer for young readers who are especially
interested in this format - and those who don't even know yet about the
wonders of graphic novels.
Here are some excellent resources I hope are helpful:

https://www.ctd.northwestern.edu/blog/research-behind-graphic-novels-and-young-learners


I'd also like to suggest some resources that offer insights about the
bigger conversation about choice, access, motivation and self-selection,
specifically Game Changer! Book Access for All Kids By Colby Sharp &
Donalyn Miller.

I'd also recommend checking out Scholastic's Kids & Family Reading Report:
https://www.scholastic.com/readingreport/access-matters.html.

If I can be of any assistance (as a fellow graphic novel & kid choice
enthusiast), feel free to let me know.

Good luck!

-Eti
