The list of approved titles are now on their own page waiting for anotations. I put the age guidlines in parentheses. - Miranda
MCLS Comics Booklist Annotations
Thursday, November 5, 2009
Here is the list I compiled from our last meeting. Feel free to add to it as desired. Maybe we could do something like add your name after the book if you vote yes or no. I did the first to show what I mean. How many "yes" votes should we need to include something? Three? Four? Also, if anybody has better ideas, please come forth. I haven't done this sort of thing much! Also, items that are NOT in print are bolded.
