As an avid reader and a creative writer, I've realised the impact book characters have on our thoughts, especially at the influential age of 11. Check out this article from Bookstr to see how your favourite character influenced someone's childhood!
Books can have a remarkable impact, especially when you're read to as a child and grow up reading books. This article was inspired by Laura Trinder's illustration with a quote that says, "It takes a library to raise a child," and as a bookish community run by bookish people, we had an abundance of ideas at the ready. Scroll through our carousel to discover some of the characters that raised the Bookstr team and see if your childhood favorite book is included in the full article at the link below.

One of the biggest reasons I work in kid lit is to promote literacy. That is: the ability to read and comprehend what you've read. Combine that w/ a bit of critical thinking and its much harder to be lied to. If you live in a state where they are attacking books, librarians, or libraries-get organized. I've had two books banned and I know exactly how it feels to grow up feeling like your story doesn't exist. https://lnkd.in/g8WfiZEj #bookbanning #theyrenottryingtoprotectchildren #callbullshit

"Library-Friendly Subscription Services: Libraries also make use of Comics Plus, a LibraryPass database of new and backlist comics, graphic novels, and manga. The platform makes new content available every Wednesday, following the comics industry standard practice. In the first half of 2022, Comic Plus logged nearly 500,000 downloads 'through more than 2,000 schools and libraries in the US and around the world.' Its publisher partners offers simultaneous use licenses, which means it can meet unlimited demand with no wait times. The ability to provide instant access to digital materials is a key differentiator for Comics Plus. Instant access establishes credibility for Comics Plus among Gen Z patrons using school libraries and who are accustomed to Amazon’s Comixology or apps like MangaFox, Webtoon, and CrunchyRoll, subscription services that provide access to manga and anime."
