What is the Create a Comic Project?
The Create a Comic Project (CCP) is an award-winning youth literacy activity that uses comics to promote creative writing. The CCP uses two kinds of templates for instruction: blank panels, allowing kids to draw their own, and pre-drawn comics with the original dialogue bubbles blanked out.
