We have learned about John Muir.

He became famous when he made an invention to get people out of bed. A Wake-you-up-bed!

We also learned about graphic novels.

A graphic novel has pictures in boxes, captions, speech bubbles, action words and lines to show movement.

Christopher said, ‘Graphic novels are awesome!’

Thomas said, ‘They are epic!’

‘Fantastic,’ said Kenneth.

Lucy said, ‘I am going to make a graphic novel when I grow up.  I might turn it into a TV show.’

  1. Wow, thanks for the link to the graphic novel. I have only dipped in a wee bit but I will definitely be telling the grandweans all about it.

    Thanks Eastmuir!

  2. You sound as if you are really enjoying the graphic novel.
    I am not sure I would enjoy the ‘ Wake-you-up-bed’!
    I am glad you are enjoying the graphic novel. I though it looked like a great resource when you shared it.

    On Saturday I visited Pitlochry and popped into the John Muir centre there. There was some interesting books and paintings.
