The number one goal of the PS 112 School Library is to develop a love of reading! To do this, especially given our population in which so many students are English Language Learners and such a large percentage struggle with language processing delays, it is vital to provide my students with highly engaging books whose stories center on images as well as words. All readers including struggling readers gravitate towards graphic novels because the pictures and visuals are less intimidating than a typical book. Students who read these graphic novels find reading fun and begin to read more for enjoyment! Graphic novels are a gateway to developing a love of reading for reluctant readers. It is so important that we get graphic novels into the hands of these new readers!
