[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Two words: graphic novels[/quote] Bad advice. These have hobbled a generation of kids. [/quote] I think these are fine to encourage pleasure reading. They are not appropriate for classroom study or for a book report. I make my kids choose a classic for their many book reports, but I am not policing their bedtime reading material. I say this as someone whose mom was so hands-off that I did book reports on Garfield books throughout elementary school (even though I was reading way more advanced material) because I didn't want to look like a showoff.[/quote]
