    Does every book have to be graphic-ized?!?

    • Judy Weymouth says

      I’m 79 years old and for some reason my brain just cannot comfortably handle graphic format. But I know these books are very popular with young readers.

        I’m not against them if they are originally written that way. But I’m not a fan of “regular” books being redone in a graphic format.
