Synopsis

Hear ye, hear ye! Father-daughter duo Jeremy and Hermione Tankard are pleased to introduce the first book in a rib-tickling, heartfelt full-color graphic novel series perfect for fans of Bird & Squirrel!

Yorick is a skeleton who was just dug up after a few hundred years of sleep. He speaks like it too. “Forsooth, my joy, I barely can contain!”

Bones is the hungry dog who did the digging. Though he cannot speak, he can chomp.

What will become of these two unlikely companions? Will Yorick ever find the friend he seeks? Will Bones ever find a tasty treat that does not talk back?

The course of true friendship never did run smooth.

À propos de la quatrième de couverture

The first book in a rib-tickling and heartfelt young graphic novel series about the unlikely friendship between an Elizabethan-era skeleton and the dog who digs him up, written and illustrated by a dynamic father-daughter team. Yorick, a hapless skeleton, has just been dug up after a few hundred years of sleep. Bones, a curious stray dog, did the digging. Not realizing that he is a skeleton-or that he's no longer in the Elizabethan era-Yorick tries to meet new friends around town. Much to his annoyance, Bones has quite literally latched onto him, excited to have a tasty leg bone to chew. But when Yorick's friendly overtures scare all the villagers away, it is Bones who remains by his side, and Yorick finally realizes that the friend he truly sought was attached at the hip-so to speak-all along.
