The Benefits of Graphic Novels: Why They Count As Reading
Graphic novels are under appreciated in literary circles, often dismissed as “comic books” for kids or light reading unworthy of literary consideration. However, this perception is rapidly changing as educators, scholars, and readers recognize their unique and profound benefits. Far from being mere picture books, graphic novels offer a rich reading experience that engages a wide range of readers. A 2023 survey from the National Literacy Trust found that “children who read graphic novels in their free time were twice as likely to enjoy reading more overall and rated themselves good readers as compared to those that did not read graphic novels” (United Through Reading, n.d.).
