Many of the students at our school have difficulties finding books that are interesting because of their lack of English. They want to read, they want to be entertained, they want to learn, but many of them become frustrated with page after page of words that they do not understand. These students are normally attracted to texts with graphics because it facilitates their understanding. If graphics can help encourage students to read, why not provide them with graphic novels?
