@QuagnorQuagnor @BenHatke books are a go-to: Little Robot, Julia’s House for Lost Creatures, Nobody Like a Goblin. Then, Zita the Space Girl and Mighty Jack.
@QuagnorQuagnor @BenHatke She is a giant fan of My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic, and the Adventure Time Comics, especially the early @ryanqnorth stuff. Even when she couldn’t read the words in them, she would sit and “read” them over and over, because she loved the art and wanted to figure them out.
@QuagnorQuagnor @BenHatke @ryanqnorth And we know from research that that kind of engagement with books and sequential narrative is a key element of early literacy.
So, find the thing that she wants to stare at, and give her access to LOTS of that.

@QuagnorQuagnor @BenHatke @ryanqnorth The first comics my kids collected were 1980s Power Pack, and the @skottieyoung miniseries Giant Size Little Marvel Avengers vs. X-Men.
@QuagnorQuagnor @BenHatke @ryanqnorth @skottieyoung The first “chapter books” that she would engage with on her own were @haleshannon Princess in Black books— the first of which was a gift from @PancakeLady, and the rest were suggested by her brilliant school librarian.
@QuagnorQuagnor @BenHatke @ryanqnorth @skottieyoung @haleshannon @PancakeLady @threadreaderapp May I have an unroll?
