IN THE CLASSROOM THIS WEEK

 
From the Editor

Comics, comics everywhere! This was a gangbusters week as far as receiving new titles. So many in fact, I don’t have the energy or the time to list and link them all. I just couldn’t get my work done if I did. So I’m going with a picture and genres: sports, action/adventure, fairy tale, nonfiction and Spanish-language comics.

Most of what I picked up this week is aimed at the elementary and middle school crowd, but I have been reading some great older teen and college level books that I can’t wait to publish. The reviews are already written.

Next month is Black History Month and we will celebrate with some reviews of comics focusing on persons of color. Don’t feel obligated to only talk about minority populations during their respective months of focus. Disperse the dialogue and reading throughout the year. 

Enjoy the reviews this week, brought to you early by Old Man Winter and his cold blanket of snow.
