A Fall Harvest of New Graphic Novels
Refresh your bookshelves with the best graphic novels and comics for kids of all ages — and keep your students reading all year long!
Fall is the perfect time to fill your shelves with the best new graphic novels and comics. Stocking up your classroom library with the latest releases will keep your students’ learning momentum high, long after the back-to-school energy has faded.
Graphic novels and comics offer kids a variety in format, style, and genre — from fantasy and horror to mystery and suspense — which allows both avid and reluctant readers with different interests to dive into a good book.
Packed with captivating visuals, descriptive narration, and compelling characters, graphic novels draw kids into the stories and keep them engaged from start to finish. That’s because when children read graphic novels and comics, they often slow down to observe the art alongside the text to fully understand what is happening in the plot. Illustrations provide built-in context clues for stories, which helps boost students’ reading comprehension, introduces new words, and teaches inference and critical thinking skills.
The best graphic novels of the season feature vibrant art, interesting characters, and exciting plot lines. Whether you’re looking for a superhero story, a funny comic filled with humor and heart, or an adaptation of a classic series, there’s a graphic novel for every student on this list.
