Early Graphic Novels for Comic Lovers

Tuesday, December 22, 2020

Graphic novels are for kids of all ages but lately there have been more and more published for those in early elementary grades (bigger kids are welcome to love these too). 



Narwhal and Jelly (click here to be brought to the entire series in our catalog) by Ben Clanton 

A great series to read if you like Elephant and Piggy.

Narwhal and Jelly are great friends and you can read all about their adventures as superheroes, making new friends, trying new foods, and more!

Here are the different books in the series:

Narwhal Unicorn of the Sea-Book 1

Narwhal and Jelly Jolt-Book 2

Peanut Butter and Jelly (and if you're curious, Narwhal thinks that "Pea-nut" is a very funny-sounding word!)-Book 3

Narwhal and his Otter Friend-Book 4

Happy Narwhalidays-Book 5

Narwhal Unicorn of the Sea (Narval Unicornio Marino) and Narwhal and his Otter Friend (Narval y Medu Nutry) are also available in Spanish

Books 1-3 (Narwhal Unicorn of the Sea, Narwhal and Jelly Jolt, and Narwhal and his Otter Friend) are all available in eBook format



Noodleheads (a series by Tedd Arnold (of the amazing Fly Guy series!) written by Tedd Arnold, Martha Hamilton, and Mitch Weiss, and illustrated by Tedd Arnold

Mac and Mac are two noodleheads (macaroni and cheese noodles) who have nothing in their heads (get it?!) but never run out of larger-than-life ideas.

Here are some of the different books in the series:

*Noodlehead Nightmares 

Noodleheads See the Future 

Noodleheads and the Fortress of Doom

*Noodlehead Nightmares also available in eBook format 

Other Noodlehead books (Noodleheads Find Something Fishy, and Noodleheads Lucky Day) are available to request in libraries outside of Worcester.

These last three picks are brand new to the library:


Arlo and Pips: King of the Birds by Elise Gravel

Go on some adventures with Arlo (a crow) and Pips (a chick) and learn all about crows at the same time!

If you like this comic check out Elise Gravel's other illustrated animal (most of them creepy and crawly) fact books such as: The Worm, The Slug, and The Spider.





Bunbun & Bonbon: Fancy Friends by Jess Keating

Wanna get fancy? Come along for a sweet and hop-tastic ride with friends Bunbun (a bunny) and Bonbon (a piece of candy). Can you say Bunbun and Bonbon three times fast?

Bunbun & Bonbon Hoppy Go Lucky (Book 2) coming soon!





Baloney and Friends by Greg Pizzoli

Highly reviewed by Dav Pilkey (Dog Man and Captain Underpants).

Meet best friends (well- Krabbit may think otherwise) Baloney, Peanut, Bizz, and Krabbit on their fun-filled adventures with a magic show, going swimming, and simply being there for each other (although again- Krabbit would disagree;)
