With signature humor and plenty of drama, Raina Telgemeier\u2019s beloved books<\/a> include coming-of-age stories that explore themes of friendship, family, inclusion, determination, crushes, the confusion of growing up, and more.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

These titles are perfect for kids who find new motivation to read when they pick up a graphic novel. Readers will be drawn into the stories by the compelling (and often hilarious!) illustrations while also improving their reading skills and building vocabulary. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

For instance, Drama<\/em><\/a> is about Callie\u2019s experiences in the theater department at her middle school. She is tasked to build a set worthy of Broadway for the school\u2019s production and encounters some bumps along the way (like low ticket sales and drama on and off stage!).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

And in <\/em>Guts<\/em><\/a>, Raina not only gets a terrible stomachache, but she also has to deal with highs and lows at school. This book is a thoughtful and charming story about how Raina learns to deal with anxiety and stand up to the mean girl in school.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you haven’t already, don’t forget to check out Telgemeier\u2019s graphic novel adaptations of the beloved Baby-sitters Club books. Using her acclaimed signature style, Telgemeier brilliantly brings the books to life in vivid colour, perfectly capturing the humor and drama of the originals. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

If your reader has devoured every book in Telgemeier\u2019s catalog (and let’s be honest, who could blame them?) then order your copy of her newest book, The Cartoonist’s Club<\/em><\/a>, now available at Scholastic Book Clubs! In the book, four budding cartoonist friends come together to form the eponymous club, where kids can learn about making comics and use their creativity and imagination for their own storytelling adventures!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Plus, check out this fun (and free!) activity guide<\/a> based on the book that will keep kids entertained for hours!\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n
