"Avenue A Books will launch in mid-May with a line of graphic novels designed to help readers ages five to 14 develop social and emotional learning skills. The inaugural titles are aimed at both the educational and trade markets. . . . First out of the gate are Ready for Read Aloud (May) by Jenny Rose, illus. by Lisa M. Griffin, featuring a second grader who is working up the courage to read her favorite book during read-aoud time at school, and Charlie and the Octopus (June) by Rebecca Roan, illus. by Larissa Marantz, in which Charlie discovers that an octopus has followed him home from the aquarium. Six more titles are slated for release by the end of the year, and Avenue A has a plan to publish eight to 10 titles annually."
