Written and Illustrated by Alberto Varanda
I was drawn to this book because of the fantastic artwork. Varanda is very talented. Though from the cover it might look like a children’s book, the humor is geared for older audiences. Children might not “get it” without explanation. Also, rather than one story, it reads like a comic strip and reminds me at times of Calvin and Hobbes, which isn’t a bad thing, just something to keep in mind if you are looking for a children’s storybook.
