Dude3? Pfft, no, we are DOGZOMBIES.
A book based on a boy known as Tom Gates who only cares about three things; Sleeping, doodling in his math class and his favourite band DUDE3. The book comes in the comedy genre and contains a lot of interesting ideas. It has a very different style of writing and comic strip. The comic strip is an informal style of art which reflects the way Tom draws in the story and the best part is that on the right corner, it has a very amusing flip book containing a bug dancing and playing his guitar with ultimate joy. I mean-, what could be better than that? Check out this interesting book by L. Pichon.

This tale set in Ireland in the 1940s paints a picture about the life of Cyril Avery, a boy born out of wedlock, a fact he is oft reminded of. The book is a picturesque depiction of Ireland and the way the society of the times functioned on a truly intricate level. The book is an odious remark on the tenacity of human spirit and its ability to live through joy and suffering, coming out for the better every time.
