[OYAN] Graphic Novel/Manga suggestions

Fri Apr 1 11:51:19 PDT 2016

Some of my favorites for that age group:

Meanwhile by Jason Shiga – choose your own adventure! So awesome!
El Deafo by Cece Bell (GREAT for Telgemeier fans)
Amulet series by Kazu Kibuishi
Olympians series by George O’Connor
Foiled by Jane Yolen
American Born Chinese by Gene Yang
One Piece series (Manga)

As far as manga goes, I've recommended Yotsuba&! ad nauseum. It works every time for all ages-- even for newcomers to manga. I've seen kids and grown men giggle at the shenanigans of the adorable main character.

Roller Girl for those whom love Raina Telgemeier! Also, pretty much anything by Doug TenNapel, but Cardboard is especially well liked.

Best,
MacKenzie

Hi Collective of Awesomesauce,

I’ve started a book club at my local middle school during lunch.  Each month we discuss a different genre.  Next month, they want ideas for comics/graphic novels/ and manga.  Please send any titles you regularly recommend to 6-8th graders for inclusion on my list!

Thanks,
Aimee
