I stole most of the text for today’s post from a friend’s Facebook page.  Thank you Janice for writing so eloquently how I feel about El Deafo by Cece Bell and color by David Lasky.

“I still read to my kids and, since they love graphic novels, I am reading them this book. They l-o-v-e it. I mean obsessed, chasing me around the house begging me to read more. I have actually hidden it so they can’t read it without me.”

PS – Curious about what “color by David Lasky” means?  Cece Bell explains it in her post El Deafo Honors David Lasky, Colorist Extraordinaire.

PSS – I made an important decision two seconds ago.  This will be the next title read by ML’s Book Club.
