Graphic novels and comics for young readers help develop reading skills and transform children into lifelong readers.
We hope that all new readers will say, “I like to read comics!”
I Like to Read® Comics are in a friendly, accessible format. They hold the attention of kids who don’t usually like to read and add variety to the reading experiences of all young readers. These books are a great alternative to screen time. Plus, they boost important skills and instill a love of reading. Best of all, I Like to Read® Comics are lots of fun!
I Like to Read® Comics are perfect for challenged readers, unengaged readers, English language learners, visual learners, and readers looking for variety. They provide extensive support to help with decoding, sequencing, memory, and reading comprehension. They help children develop visual literacy. I Like to Read® Comics are a perfect addition to any reading toolkit.
The format is inherently less intimidating. Reading graphic novels is on par with a face-to-face encounter. Sequences of panels supply facial expressions, depictions of actions, gestures, and other types of nonverbal communication and make the reading experience more personal.
Sequential storytelling in panels offers multiple cues beyond words and illustrations to help readers decode words and understand storylines. Visual cues include facial expressions, gestures, props, depictions of actions, settings, and sound effects.
Through reading comics, kids learn how to read and understand sequences and integrate visual information. These visual skills are essential building blocks for understanding and pulling information from maps, charts, graphs, diagrams, photographs, and all infographics.
