Synopsis

  • This stunning book-length debut is a quiet picture novella of a small turtle, Chunky Rice, leaving his home and his mouse friend, Dandel.

Review

"Both funny and genuinely touching in turn, Craig Thompson's Good-bye Chunky Rice is an affecting meditation upon friendship, loneliness, and loss, all delivered with a real feel for the musicality of the comic strip form. This work sings and dances, and you could do a lot worse than to sing and dance along with it. Highly recommended."
--Alan Moore, creator of From Hell and Watchmen
