Benjamin Percy wrote the novel Refresh, Refresh, which was interpreted into a graphic novel by Danica Novgorodoff. Just what is a graphic novel?According to hbook.com, it is a book designed to entertain, educate, document and interpret social, historical and current events. Graphic novels are sequential and combine text with panels and images to tell a story. They range in length from a comic strip to a comic book to a full length graphic novel. While many believe that only young people read graphic novels, the truth is the average age of readers of this type of novel is 30. While large numbers of graphic novels and comics are written about superheroes, there are now many genres, including memoir, fantasy and historical novels. Due to the fact that there is less text and the story is easily followed through pictures, these books are enjoyed by reluctant readers, but also enjoyed by those who take pleasure from reading traditional books.
