I am a middle school reading teacher who also teaches the lowest readers (Level 
1 non-fluent). I find that using graphic novels are very motivating for my 
lowest readers. The most popular/common are the series by Dav Pilkey: Ricky 
Ricotta and his  Mighty Robot series and the Captain Underpants Series. There 
is also the Graphic Sparks series (various authors) and the Sports Illustrated 
Kids Graphic Novels  which are  both published by Stone Arch Books. The Bone 
series by Jim Smith are a favorite. My students also like the Franny K. Stein  
Mad Scientist series by Jim Benton. The "new" Hardy Boys are also available as 
graphic novels as are "The Warriors" series (about animals) by Erin Hunter. My 
girls like the Ivy and Bean series. Another High/Low series that has recently 
become popular is the Wake, Fade, Gone series by Lisa McMann. These books are 
suitable for  8th grade middle school students and up.
