Too many of our kids struggle with reading and writing

Now, you can help us end illiteracy and unlock the love of reading and writing in all learners, with the power of graphic novels and comics.


Teaching with comics increases engagement, and the ultimate value is in helping your students look with care, see possibilities, consider alternatives, ask nuanced questions, show their thinking, and bravely tell stories they would not have told in any other medium.


Best of all, even your most reluctant readers and writers will engage enthusiastically with your lessons and content.

Hacking Graphic Novels offers new ideas and practical tools for teachers of all subjects, grades, and experience levels with sequential art. Shveta Miller, a teacher leader and global advocate for teaching with comics, shows teachers how to:


  • Guide students to look at visuals slowly with curiosity, open-mindedness, and intention
  • Develop independent learners who explore the possibilities and real-world applications
  • Encourage students to think, process, and express their understanding of complex systems and ideas
  • Help students escape the comfort zone and productively struggle in the growth zone
  • Use close reading and close looking for writers to inspire comprehension through storytelling
  • Inspire colleagues, administrators, families, and students with the power of visual texts


Want all of your students to learn through storytelling and express their learning in writing? Grab Hacking Graphic Novels today, and watch your students smile tomorrow.

About the Author
Miller, Shveta V.: - Shveta Miller, author of Hacking Graphic Novels, taught high school English Language Arts in New York City public schools and at a few colleges throughout Asia, where she honed the process of teaching students how to critically read and craft texts of all kinds, from TV sitcom scripts to graphic narratives and parodies of classic novels. Now a teacher leader and literacy specialist, she presents nationally on research-based instructional practices and coaches teachers in their classrooms and online. She currently serves a school district in Oregon as a secondary instructional coach, primarily supporting teachers with differentiating instruction for students' assessed rates and levels. Shveta advocates for teaching with comics and graphic novels through her position as Director of Curriculum for Reading With Pictures, participation on Comic Con panels, and through school and library visits. Her articles about teaching and learning have appeared on popular education sites such as Edutopia, Cult of Pedagogy, Education Week, and Shaped: The HMH Blog. She is a contributing writer for Book Riot and the author of 5 Steps to a 5: 500 AP English Literature Questions (McGraw Hill, 3rd ed, 2021), a book that is less about memorizing test strategies and more about using higher-order questions to stretch your understanding of a range of complex literary texts.
