I LOVE graphic novels! They are such a perfect tool for students who are reluctant readers as well as those who just want to read a different style of book. When I taught 2nd grade one of the novels we read together was The Boxcar Children #1. My students loved the book! Imagine my surprise when I became a librarian and discovered that this timeless series has been turned into a graphic novel series! Readers old and young can share this series for years and years to come. Check it out! Happy reading! :)

(Series originally written by Gertrude Chandler Warner)
Adapted by Shannon Eric Denton
A graphic novel adaptation of Gertrude Chandler Warner's story in which four orphaned children, afraid to go live with their grandfather, set up housekeeping in an abandoned boxcar.
