Robot Dreams

ROBOT DREAMS: Sara Varon: First Second: Graphic Novel: 205 pages

In a graphic novel with no dialogue, a dog and a robot become friends, but an unfortunate trip to the ocean rusts the robot and he spends the year abandoned on the beach, dreaming of being reunited with the dog. This simply drawn story portrays friendship in a surprisingly poignant and powerful way. A good graphic novel for those unfamiliar with the format.
