Thanks to Heidi at The Beat for bringing this story from USA Today to my attention. Though not exactly a graphic novel -- indeed it describes itself a novel in cartoons (there's a difference) -- the book is close enough to count, and apparently kids love it! Actually, they love the series, as there are now multiple volumes of Jeff Kinney's lovable author-described Caulfieldesque Greg.
A Public Service Announcement! ;)

Hmm.... I'm thinking maybe I'll publish a spoof of this book. How's _Dairy of a Wimpy Cow_ sound? ;)
