Kickstart your children’s learning while Reading with Pictures
By VertigoX on February 23rd, 2010Posted In: News
Reading With Pictures is a newly-formed nonprofit (founded by Josh Elder) that – with your help – is going to utterly revolutionize the role of comics in education. We’re going to work with academics to cultivate groundbreaking research into the proper role of comics in education. We’re going to collaborate with cartoonists to produce exceptional graphic novel content for scholastic use. Most importantly, we’re going to partner with educators to develop a system of best practices for integrating comics into their curriculum.
Trevor Mueller has mentioned this worthy and worthwhile effort on the TGT Webcomics podcast in Episode 082 and don’t take my word for it. Watch the video and read what they are doing, you would be remiss if you didn’t at least put $15 towards a book with free shipping to your door!

And don’t forget there’s a limited edition hardcover for just $5 more!
Plus, if you’ve ever wanted to see yourself (or yourself as a kid, or your kid, or your niece/nephew) in a comic, there’s an opportunity for that too!
