The world has been very excited about Comics Squad: Recess!
for a very long time! And it was worth the wait! What a great book. I am sure I am going to need several for the classroom this year. Kid are going to go crazy with this one!
If you haven't read Jarrett Krosoczka's Nerdy Book Club post about the book, it is a fabulous story of the book and how it came to be.
Here are 10 of the things I love about this book!
1. It is a great size!
2. It has 8 different stories! So great for read aloud or independent reading. So many possibilities!
3. Babymouse and Lunch Lady intro the book together! What could be better?
4. It is VERY funny!
5. There is a lot of orange inside!
6. It seems to be good for ALL ages--like 0-99, I think!
7. It is a collection of stories from some of the best graphic novel writers around. This is a great way to introduce kids to new authors OR if they already love these author, they get something new!
8. There is an ugly sweater in the book. Any book with an ugly sweater is a real treat!
9. You can learn to draw Betty in 12 easy steps (maybe)...!
10. There will be a Comics Squad #2!
Thank you authors for an incredible new book!
