Kidlit Love: Conversations with Picture Book, Middle Grade and YA Authors

E131: Graphic Novel Adaptations: The Lemonade War with Jacqueline Davies


Listen Later

On this episode of the KidLit Love podcast, I’m talking with Jacqueline Davies about her new graphic novel adaptation of The Lemonade War. 

The original book was published back in 2007 told the story of two siblings literally caught in a lemonade war. This new graphic novel version captures the original story in a new, fresh, visual way. 

Come listen as we talk about the real-life inspiration behind the original novel, the ways that schools have embraced the spirit of the book and the learning needed to translate the prose novel to its graphic counterpart.
