Graphic novel and Written novel


Recently, my two English teachers had showed our class about some graphic novels. I found it very interesting and I like it. The graphic novel is actually a storybook which consists of only pictures and there was not a single word in the book. On the other hand, written novel only consists of words and there are not a picture in there. In my own opinion, I would prefer graphic novels to written novels. Written novels sometimes can be very boring if you are not interested.

Now, I am going to talk about the difference between the graphic novel and the written novel. I think they have their weakness and strength. First I am going to talk the graphic novel. Graphic novel is just pictures as I had mentioned earlier, but they are not able to give as much as informations compared to the written novel. But it can easily attract the reader's attention and the reader will eager to finish reading it.

What about written novel? They are just written words but can provide the readers a lot more informations than the graphic novel. Its weakness is the readers may get confused if there are too many characters appearing in the book.
