Another Month, Another Children's Comics Imprint: Toon Books

It's official! We're experiencing a renaissance of comics for children. The latest imprint to offer children's graphic novels is Toon Books. It is introducing graphic novels for very young readers, 4 years old and up (similar to Punaise & Puceron in the French and Belgian markets). Toon Books founders, Françoise Mouly and Art Spiegelman, who have long advocated for quality comics for children (notably with their lavish and smart Little Lit collection), bring their artistic flair and editorial know-how to an already promising catalogue.
