Truckdogs: A Novel in Four Bites
Paperback
(Harry N. Abrams June 1, 2005)
Best-selling picture book Graeme Base's first-ever novel now available in paperback! In a far-off desert world, evolution has taken an unexpected turn. The dominant life form is a creature covered in fur with steel panels beneath. It gnaws at bones and sniffs lampposts but fills up on oil, brake fluid, and gasoline to keep running. This is the world of TruckDogs, a fast-paced, futuristic adventure story from million-copy best-selling picture book Graeme Base. It also features sixteen of his full-color illustrations and details of all kinds of crazy machines and gadgets to attract even reluctant readers, especially now that it's priced for paperback. AUTHOR BIO: Graeme Base is the author of a number of best-selling children's picture books, including Jungle Drums. This is his first novel. He lives in Australia. Molly, his Labrador friend, lives there, too. They spend a lot of time roaming through the Australian outback, a terrain remarkably similar to the setting of this book.
