I don't know about the Graph part too (and Wikipedia doesn't know about that as well). I think the idea is that your queries kinda visualizes the data you're asking for. I mean it's not that hard to understand what I'm asking for in this query:

query {
  books(author:"George von Devto") {
    title
    pages
    comments(rating:">=4") {
      name
      text
    }
  }
}
