Children’s Graphic Novels

-Malled, Scott Lobdell; White Star: A Dog on the Titanic, Marty Crisp; The Various, Steve Augarde;

"While on the subject of burning books, I want to congratulate librarians, not famous for their physical strength, their powerful political connections or great wealth, who, all over this country, have staunchly resisted anti-democratic bullies who have tried to remove certain books form their shelves, and destroyed records rather than have to reveal to the thought police the names of persons who have checked out those titles.

So, the America I loved still exists, if not in the White House, the Supreme Court, the Senate, the House of Representatives, or the media. The America I Loved still exists at the front desks of our public libraries."--Kurt Vonnegut, A Man without a Country, Seven Sties Press, New York, 2005, p102-3.
