Drawn In
Drawn In is a Mid-America Emmy Award-winning series of epic stories set in a bustling Midwest city that follow the adventures of four kids—Tyler Agbani, Nevaeh Campbell, Jadyn Harris, and Yeong-Ja "Grace" Park—whose real world collides with their comic world in every story.
When characters escape from the comic pages and cause mayhem, it takes keen vocabulary, problem-solving, and teamwork to set the world right again. Early learners join the Comic Crew as they help their mentor, Lady Magnitude, ensure that comic books are always on hand to read, discuss, and enjoy.
Nine PBS has partnered with Lion Forge Entertainment, the Academy Award®-winning creators of Hair Love, on this multimedia initiative, Drawn In. Stories are shared through animated video shorts, print and digital comic books, and a website with educational games for kids.
