Overview

Little Rice Duck has built himself quite the reputation around the West Wood, playing his trumpet in bars with their smoky, sweaty ambience, tequila sunrises and smooth jazz. All he needs is that Betty character - and she is one bitch bathing in expensive champagne. But, much like the champagne, he'd much prefer that she would just stay chilled. In this funky graphic novel, the acclaimed author brings together his love for music and comics.

A poignant tale echoing the plight of early European immigrants, who abandoned everything they knew in search of a better life and nurtured hope even in the worst of situations. Abelard never loses his sense of optimism, and the world remains an awe-inspiring and whimsical place--awash in Dillies's lush colors and nuanced sensitivity to mood. -- Publishers Weekly on Abelard

Recommended for those who think talking animals don't always have to just be funny animals. --Bill Sherman, Seattle Post Intelligencer
