Reading books is fun . . . but what about making them?

Peek over Henrietta's shoulder as she scribbles out the story of a brave young girl, a three-headed monster, and an impossibly wide world of adventure. Whether read aloud to a toddler or discovered by a young reader, Liniers' celebration of the creative process is sure to make everyone want to bring out their pencils.

"Es divertido leer libros... pero que hay de crearlos? A Enriqueta le regalan unos lapices de colores que dan rienda suelta a su imaginacion: con ellos, y acompanada por su gato Fellini, dibujara la historia de terror (con final feliz) de una joven valiente que se topa con monstruos con varias cabezas, armarios magicos y sombreros fabulosos. He aqui un cuento divertido que sin duda estimulara la creatividad de los lectores mas pequenos."--Provided by publisher.

The Cambridge History of the Graphic Novel provides the complete history of the graphic novel from its origins in the nineteenth century to its rise and startling success in the twentieth and twenty-first century. It includes original discussion on the current state of the graphic novel and analyzes how American, European, Middle Eastern, and Japanese renditions have shaped the field. Thirty-five leading scholars and historians unpack both forgotten trajectories as well as the famous key episodes, and explain how comics transitioned from being marketed as children's entertainment. Essays address the masters of the form, including Art Spiegelman, Alan Moore, and Marjane Satrapi, and reflect on their publishing history as well as their social and political effects. This ambitious history offers an extensive, detailed and expansive scholarly account of the graphic novel, and will be a key resource for scholars and students.
