Benny and Penny comics
Blog alert! Just a few weeks ago award-winning author and illustrator, Geoffrey Hayes created a blog for his graphic novel characters, Benny and Penny.
The all-original comics posted on this blog are specially designed for emerging readers, in terms of both vocabulary and content. Every Monday there will be a new story with Benny, Penny and their friends (you can print these out and color them). Plus every Wednesday there will be a new cartoon, where you'll get to suggest what Benny and Penny could be saying in the blank balloons, and Geoffrey will post his favorites!
You can even write to the author through the blog's in the comments and he’ll answer you personally!

Greetings Laura,
ReplyDeleteThis is Ngoc from TOON Books. I noticed your blog mentioning Geoffrey Hayes' Benny and Penny blog. On behalf of Geoffrey and everyone here at TOON Books, thank you so much. We really appreciate it.
Also, I don't know if you've already read our new releases: "Benny and Penny in the Toy Breaker," and "Zig and Wikki in Something Ate My Homework." If you haven't, I can send them your way to review. Please let me know where to ship them.
Again, I appreciate the mention of the blog!
Best,

P.S. Just curious, how did you hear about the BP blog?
