Age-appropriate, of course! ^_^ I worked for two years chairing a task force that finally got the Great Graphic Novels for Teens list going at the Young Adult Library Services Association - after more than 2 decades of pushing comics and graphic novels for libraries. I know how much work goes into doing something like this. Kudos to Nickelodeon Magazine for doing this! We just started a Nickelodeon subscription at my school library.

First, there’s a story about a seven year old boy reviewing comics. If you want to know what is really what, ask a kid.  They will tell you everything they think. (There are also two young girls and their mother who review comics on Newsrama called All-Ages Reads, as well.) Also, Nickelodeon has kids-choice comic awards?

I think he's been at this for quite some time now and the planets finally aligned to make it happen. Even though there is tons of great stuff for older audiences the publishers are all going to see value in creating books for the younger set too. hey, we need to start feeding the market at a very early age here folks! Not that its really a problem to do that. what a great time to be in the business! I know it's not like the golden age but it seems to be getting pretty damned close for the next gen creators.

It's not clear, though -- is this best Kids' Graphic Novel of all time, or is there a limitation on when it was published? I'll ask Dave. This is neat!
