We began publishing great graphic novels for kids all the way back in 2005 (a time when kids graphic novels were a rarity). Since then we’ve published everything from old favorites like THE HARDY BOYS and NANCY DREW to hits like THE SMURFS and GERONIMO STILTON. Whether it’s European imports like ARIOL, licensed titles like BARBIE and TROLLS or original graphic novels like FUZZY BASEBALL or ANNE OF GREEN BAGELS, there truly is something for everyone in the Papercutz line up.
