Welcome to another edition of Must Read Monday!
This feature is where I spotlight older, recent, or upcoming releases I am looking forward to. The lists will include all genres I like to read, everything from picture books to comics, children’s lit to adult fiction!
This week is all about children’s graphic novel series! New series entries are either out or soon to be out for: Dana Simpson‘s Heavenly Nostrils, Judd Winick‘s HiLo, and James Burks‘ Bird & Squirrel, three wonderful, fun and vibrant graphic novel series that I adore and often recommend (the kids love them!).
