Graphic Novels Are Great!
According to the site Get Graphic, graphic novels are not a genre, but a format. They can be fiction, nonfiction, history, etc! Graphic novels are similar to comic books but usually have more complex plots. Graphic novels are often great for motivating students who have struggled with engagement as readers. Scholastic published this guide for teachers and librarians for using graphic novels. Some of the information might help parents understand graphic novels a bit better and why they are a great choice for all readers.
