Little Man’s love for graphic novels has been well documented. {Read about other graphic novel series here and here.} They are engaging, easy to read, and fun. He has been reading the series The Flying Beaver Brothers by Maxwell Eaton III for quite some time. He has actually read and re-read each title over and over and over.
Brothers Ace and Bub make him giggle. Ace loves extreme sports and is always looking for a new adventure. Bub loves napping and, well, napping. Each new book finds them on a new adventure. The illustrations are fantastic, the colors simple, and the dialogue is snappy. Little Man devours these books and anxiously awaits the next title to be released. Give this series a try! I bet your kids love it.
The Flying Beaver Brothers is targeted for kids in grades 1-4, but Big W thinks they are hilarious as well. They are a crowd-pleaser!
Reading for enjoyment is so important for young children. There is no way to convey how strongly I feel about this topic. Please allow your kids to have fun with books. Never mind the mom who is bragging about her three year old reading chapter books. Forget about the labels they may or may not have put on your child at school. The goal should be building life long readers. Whether your child is reading chapter books, comic books, graphic novels, non-fiction titles or poetry, the important thing is that he or she is reading. Simple but true. Let them enjoy books and have fun helping them find books they love.
