Award-winning author and illustrator Raina Telgemeier and cartoonist and comic theorist Scott McCloud are the Honorary Chairs of National Library Week 2025!
They joined forces to create a new graphic novel, The Cartoonist Club, which will be published this April! Jacobs Library will have a copy available soon!
According to the American Library Association (2024), "[The Cartoonist Club] tells the story of Makayla, who is bursting with ideas but doesn’t know how to make them into a story, and Howard, who loves to draw but struggles to come up with ideas. These two new friends, shy Lynda and inventive Art, come together to form The Cartoonists Club. Their beloved school librarian helps them discover the magic of comics, imagination, and their own storytelling powers. The result is a book where friendship is a work of art."
