Though I’m not much of a comics reader, I too had a book which chronicled the history of comics (in fact it’s sitting inches from me right now). This one was borrowed from a friend rather than the school library, and also never returned. Really fascinating stuff…

I particularly like your comments about letting kids find their own way with their book choices. I can’t help but encourage my 8 year-old son to start reading some of my own favourites, but we’re very conscious of letting him choose – it’s the best way to have them develop that love of reading and to explore the creative realm.

As long as he’s reading, I know he’ll get something out of it. “Calvin & Hobbes” alone has likely doubled his vocabulary. B-)
