<div dir="auto">Megan,</div><div dir="auto">In this case, I’m just wondering about monthly/quarterly publications. In our district we have a separate magazine budget and I’m hoping to bring more comics in that way. I’ll definitely take a look at the list, though.

The Best Graphic Novels for Children Reading List</a> put together by the Graphic Novels and Comics Round Table through ALA? It’s all about comics for 5-12-year-olds and is intended to help librarians make collection development decisions. (Also, I was on last
year’s and this year’s committees, so I can attest to the quality of work represented on this list!)<u></u><u></u></p>
