Staff Picks: Witchy Stories

by | Oct 17, 2020

Over the years at No Flying No Tights, we’ve aimed to help library staff creating and maintaining comics collections by providing consistent, library-centric reviews. We’re delighted to offer you monthly reader’s advisory lists!

Our next list is live: Witchy Stories!

What makes someone a witch? Is it their power?  Or is it the fact they are a bit different? The witch has been a fascinating character for generations and for good reason!  In honor of Halloween, we’ve compiled our favorite witchy graphic novels!

This monthly series of reader’s advisory and collection development lists are intended to help all of you find and collect the best titles for your collections.  These lists are created and coordinated by our crack team including Features coordinators Martha and Traci, dedicated Feature writer Megan, and editor Mariela.

Take me to the Witchy Stories!
Keep an eye out for news lists coming at least once a month from here on out at No Flying No Tights.
