Bolivar

"Straddling the line between picture books and graphic novels with evident ease, Sean Rubin brings to life the tale of a reclusive Upper West Side dino and the girl that who loves him. Bolivar has been able to hide in plain sight for years (in New York City, nobody notices if you’re a dinosaur), but when young Sybil publicly declares his existence, the introverted reptile must face his fears. Manhattan is rendered in intricate, crosshatched illustrations so accurate you’ll be craving a hot pastrami on rye by the time the book is done. (For ages 8 to 12)"
