The Graphic Novel Choices for our Homeschool Year
Who says you have to read only novels during your homeschool year?

Normally read a variety of literature, including graphic novels, and it has become clear that my soon to be 14 year old prefers graphic novels above all other types of literature.
As a result, we are going to spend the entire year reading and studying graphic novels in her English class.
Let’s talk about my choices for a literature year focused on graphic novels.

I’m so inspired…thank you
You are welcome!
How did this go after the fact? I am just stumbling upon this right now and am quite inspired! I would love to hear in a word or two how it went.
We had a great time. I didn’t get to dive in deep with her for every book but we enjoyed reading them even when we didn’t do a deep dive.
