Thank you for all of your books!

I wonder what you think about your Boxer books being labeled "graphic novels." Did you think of them as "novels" while you were creating them?

A related question: Have you attempted to push back in the wider book community and/or the publishing industry as to how graphic literature has been "named?"

Cordially,
Ginny Moore Kruse
Director Emerita, The CCBC
