All age comic books for September 18

Subscribe: RSS

All age comic books and all age graphic novels. The former are just individual comic books that come out in a monthly or as a mini-series. The later are either an original story that’s out for the first time or a collected series of comic books that encapsulate a story arc from comic books.

This week has some amazing examples of all of them. One of our favorite original graphic novels has a new entry this week. Laser Moose and Rabbit Boy is so much fun for elementary aged reader and (way…) up. Time Trout is their latest adventure and is so fun to read. This is the manic sort of story that will hook in anyone who picks up the book. It’ll make reluctant readers want to read and give those kids who already love reading an excuse to re-read it dozens of times. Elementary school readers will also dig Teen Titans Go!, Catwad-It’s Me, Two and many others.

Middle school readers already have Guts on their radar. The content might be too much for elementary ages, but some in upper elementary will be OK with it. The Red Zone is a great example of a graphic novel as a means of education and entertainment. Granted, the true story of an earthquake isn’t entertaining, but kids might have difficulty processing massive scale disasters. This graphic novel opens a window to that experience.

In the podcast we’ll chat about those things plus Magnificent Ms. Marvel, Archie vs. Predator 2 and more.

This week in all age comic books has Laser Moose Catwad, Guts, The Red Zone, Teen Titans Go! and two series for emerging readers.

Dragon Con, comic book artists, STEM, Kid’s Track-oh my

“But we don’t dress up”, I need a button that says that when our neighbors ask us about Dragon Con. As a family, Dragon Con gets more and more entertaining every year we go. Dragon Con happens in Atlanta over Labor Day every year. It is also family friendly. Our neighbors give us a side-eye when we say that also. All one needs to do is walk around downtown Atlanta when Dragon Con is happening and you’ll see hundreds of children accompanying their parents. This is a massively fun time for kids and families who have the right mindset.

Dragon Con continues to exceed expectations. In 2019 they upped their comic book artists, held the STEM steady and continued the Kid’s Track for 12 and under.

By the right mindset I mean, be OK with crowds. Over 85,000 people attended Dragon Con in 2019. It’s crowded everywhere you go. What’s amazing is that, despite its massive size and crowd the lines are constantly moving. Another mind boggling fact is that the vast majority of people you’ll encounter are chilled out.

Dragon Con 2019 continues to be a fabulous g0-to destination for the family

Bobs’ and Tweets Scout Camp!, wide age pre-k through elementary book

Rhyming is the stuff of sight word books. Fans of Bobs’ and Tweets don’t agree with that look. This is a series that our eldest has loved for years. His copy of Trick or Treat is loaded with tears. Each entry is loaded with sight words and funny pictures. For kids through second grade, like those who might be struggling to read, this could be quite the beneficial mixture.

Bobs and Tweets Scout Camp! is the sort of fun, rhyming, emerging reader chapter book that gets them hooked into a love of reading.

For elementary school readers, all of them, and even those pre-k kids who are digging sight words

Kitten Lady’s Big Book of Little Kittens, kitten fostering 101

If Kitten Lady’s Big Book of Little Kittens came with an audio soundtrack it would be the sound of elementary aged children laughing, oohing, squealing and ahhing. Then there’d be nothing, because they’d be too occupied with reading the book. This book knows its purpose, is squarely dedicated to that one segment and hits the nail on the head. Hannah Shaw is the founder of the 501c3 Orphan Kitten Club, has appeared on Animal Planet and provides rescue and adoption services to orphaned kittens in San Diego. This is a book that takes an honest, kid-friendly look at fostering kittens.

Cats, they’ve fascinated us since the time of the pyramids. This book is a go-to, kid-friendly way about being a kitten foster

Aliens, lovies and Men In Black: International arrive on Blu-Ray DVD

We have a child that absolutely goes mental over lovies. These are the stuffed animals that populate a child’s room, they can be an alligator, bear, character from a movie or a stuffed thing that he won from a claw machine, but they all have the same name: Lovey. If you’ve seen Men In Black: International there’s a cute scene where an alien hides amongst some lovies. That film is available on Blu-Ray DVD now and they’ve partnered with Budsies to remind people that anything in a child’s imagination can be a lovey.

Men In Black: International is available on Blu-Ray DVD. The aliens are awesome and they compete with what a 7 year-old can create in their mind.

Men IN black: International is out on blu-ray dvd, monsters, aliens and lovies galore

If I Was The Sunshine, a big, beautiful great good-night book

If pre-K through early elementary school kids had coffee tables then If I Was The Sunshine is one of those books that would be front and center. “Oh, isn’t that book fabulous”, the clumsy kid from down the street would say. “And those illustrations, the farm animals that were drawn by Loren Long are absolutely dreamy. They’re solid, yet ethereal and remind me of a place that I’ve never been to-but I sure want to go”, said the visiting art critic from some big city on the coast. “The size of the book is great too. It’s as big around as that dwarf white pumpkin we’re grew last year”, Sam the farmer from Georgia commented.

If I Was The Sunshine is a huge, square-shaped statement children’s illustrated rhyming story that’s a great good-night book.

In this imaginary world of coffee talk all of these small children would be correct. If I Was The Sunshine is a children’s illustrated book whose mere presence makes you take notice. Boom, all one has to do is look at the book and it grabs your attention. This is a large book at over a square foot large this book takes up a lot of real estate on your shelf. Its height rivals those tall, encyclopedia-style National Geographic books. The size grabs your attention, the art keeps you engaged and the soft, rhyming narration will mellow out crabby children at the end of the day.

What is a great good-night book? This is one, read on for why it rocks for ages 3 and up
