Research shows that comic books/graphic novels average 53.5 rare words per thousand compared to 30.9 for children's books! "A comic book trains your brain. It works the right muscles and, if you’re struggling, they can teach you to read. You see images for context, you see the words that go with them, and your mind learns to fill in the blanks. You learn to build the narrative as you go." - Dyslexic author Jay Stringer. Reading in today's world has become more than just a relaxing pastime or favorite hobby for many students.
