ELI5: Explain Like I'm 5

Graphic narrative

Okay, kiddo. A graphic narrative is like a book that uses pictures instead of just words to tell a story. You know how in your picture books, the pictures help you understand the story better? Well, a graphic narrative is the same, but it's for older kids and grown-ups.

Instead of just having one picture on each page, a graphic narrative has lots of pictures with words and dialogue written in little bubbles to show who is talking. The pictures and words work together to create a really cool and exciting story.

Sometimes, graphic narratives can be about superheroes or adventure stories, but they can also be about serious stuff like history, social issues, or even things that happen in our own lives. The important thing is that the pictures and words help us understand the story better and feel more connected to it.

So, that's what a graphic narrative is, kiddo. It's like a really cool book with lots of pictures and words that tell us an amazing story!
