If your child prefers graphic novels, then here are some good recommendations if they're into mysteries.

Graphic novels are a great way to build your child's confidence and help them to engage with stories by making it visual.
This not only helps your child to overcome the overwhelm associated with thicker books, it also helps them to grow within their reading journey as they explore more genres and stories.
There are many books that are now turned into graphic novels such as the Famous Five series and more recently the Flower Fairies series.

As always, you can order whatever you want through your Libraries West app or come in branch to talk to one of our friendly customer advisors.

See you at the Library!

Have you been joining us for our weekly Ready, Steady, Zoom! sessions this Summer?

For those of you who have children that will be starting school in September 2027 it's worth making a note of these sessions which are held each Summer at your local Library.
Specifically tailored to boost your child's confidence before they join first school, the sessions combine a mixture of rhymes, stories and craft to get your child used to what they can expect come September.

If you would like to build your child's confidence with reading, why not come in and talk to one of our friendly customer advisors about what works best for bringing reluctant readers out of their shell.

See you at the Library!
