IN THE CLASSROOM THIS WEEK

One TGC reader recently asked us to review more high school titles. He’s right. We have not done enough for the older teens. We started looking around for some good titles and a few came in this week.

So dear reader thank you for your request. We are happy to oblige. Give us time. We are in graduate school and statistics is kicking our tail. Most of what you read this summer was written during Spring break so we could concentrate on school during school. Keep in mine, we are actively looking for volunteer reviewers (read that as unpaid). There are so many great teachers out there who are using comics with their students and we hope they will lend a hand to the movement and add to the collective education by writing stories as a staff writer (regular reviews) or as a contributing writer (occasional review).

I considered writing about a few noteworthy books this week, but how can I? This is an incredible list of great comic literature, ladies and gents. Peruse and enjoy.
