“ Growing Up Graphic makes a necessary and refreshing contribution to heretofore understudied twenty-first-century children’s comics. “By balancing several interrelated arguments regarding comics’ role in young people’s culture, their pedagogical/didactic value, and their capacity for generating empathy, Growing Up Graphic reflects the interdisciplinary nature of child studies and comics studies and opens itself up to interest from wider scholarship.” -Andrew O’Malley, author of Children’s Literature, Popular Culture, and Robinson Crusoe “Halsall’s impressive grasp of the most pressing texts and compelling topics in comics studies today combined with her own insightful commentary make Growing Up Graphic a timely and invigorating read.” -Michelle Ann Abate, author of No Kids Allowed: Children’s Literature for Adults
