Good-bye Chunky Rice by Craig Thompson
During a recent art class, Frank got a tip on some good reads in the world of graphic novels. We're talking real slice-of-life stuff that will keep you turning the page.
This Harvey Award winner tells the story of a turtle named Chunky Rice who leaves home and friends behind and boards a boat for the KaHootney islands. A calling that even Chunky himself doesn't fully understand. The characters are fantastically quirky, the artwork is impressive, and the story will make you stop and think.
