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 Marisela Garza | Youth Services Specialist Capital Area District Libraries – Administration 401 S.

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

Marjane Satrapi's "Persepolis" is outstanding for older teens! "*A memoir of growing up as a girl in revolutionary Iran, **Persepolis** provides a unique glimpse into a nearly unknown and unreachable way of life... That Satrapi chose to tell her remarkable story as a gorgeous comic book makes it totally unique and indispensable*." - *Time* https://www.amazon.com/Complete-Persepolis-Marjane-Satrapi/dp/0375714839/ref=sr_1_2?keywords=persepolis&qid=1564069755&s=gateway&sr=8-2 On Wed, Jul 24, 2019 at 5:26 PM Amelia Nolan via Michlib-l < michlib-l@mcls.org> wrote:
