Hi,
For juvenile graphic novel series definitely consider:
Adventure Time
The Amazing World of Gumball
Johnny Boo
Zita the Space Girl
CatStronauts

You may already own Victoria Jamieson Roller Girl & Cece Bell's El Deafo, but those authors also publish other excellent graphic novels.  And don't forget anything by Raina Telgemeier, Shannon Hale, Jennifer Holm, Svetlana Chmakova, Wings of Fire graphic novel adaptation by Tui Sutherland.  New Kid by Jerry Craft is a great pick.  I loved Operatic by Kyo MacLear.

Youth graphic novels: Teen Titans Go series, Tokyo Ghoul series, Giant Days, My Hero Academia, Simpsons Comics.  Some of the stand alones that have stood out to me lately would be: Bloom by Kevin Panetta, Manuelito by Elisa Amado, Spinning by Tillie Walden

Best Wishes, Mari G

Dear Librarians,

We are developing our graphic novel section of the library for junior and young adult books. I would appreciate a suggestion of your most popular series. We have Pokemon, Bone and a few others. We don't have a lot in the budget so I have to spend wisely. Your suggestions are most appreciated.

Regards,
Stephanie Daniels
Director
Hartford Public Library
