Synopsis
Using the sparsest vocabulary, Barnaby Richards creates a visually stunning world explored by a robot whose language consists solely of the word "Blip". As readers follow the robot's journey, they will delight in the surreal vistas and remarkable inhabitants of the planet, all while being gently guided through a heartfelt story of finding the familiar in an unfamiliar place.
Barnaby Richards lives in London, where he shares a studio with his wife Alice and their cat Mosca. He has been doodling pictures of his little robot in the margins of notebooks and the corners of pictures for many years. Barnaby was inspired to write Blip! when he felt it was time his robot found a friend.

Reviews
K-Gr 2—Full of easy sight words, with a few panels per page, this graphic novel will appeal to beginning readers and budding comic book fans. Audiences will identify with the lonely robot as he eagerly searches for companionship. The book opens when the robot crashes his spaceship and is set adrift on a strange planet. Hearing a bang, he goes in search of the sound. On his journey he meets a psychedelic cat, a raging dragon, and an imitative bird. The robot attempts to talk to them but can utter only the word blip. Sadly, he is misunderstood time and time again. The robot's adventures take him underwater, through a mushroom forest and video game-like mazes. His pursuit eventually leads him to a newfound friend. The few words in this text are often alliterative (bleep, blip, and bang), and the colorful pages are filled with action and emotion. As with all Toon books, there are tips for parents and teachers on how to read comics with kids. VERDICT Recommended for readers new to the format.—Lisa Gieskes, Richland County Public Library, Columbia, SC

BLIP HC GN: TOON Level 1 (Toon into Reading: Level 1)
Seller: Sell Books, Elland, YORKS, United Kingdom
Seller rating 5 out of 5 stars
hardcover. Condition: Very Good. Most of our very good books have only minor imperfections such as shelf wear consistent with a new book that's sat on a bookshop shelf for a year or two. Occasionally we may miss other minor imperfections as we have to grade books at speed. Our books are dispatched from a Yorkshire former cotton mill. We list via barcode/ISBN so please note that the images are stock images and may not be the exact copy you receive, furthermore the details about edition and year might not be accurate as many publishers reuse the same ISBN for multiple editions and as we simply scan a barcode or enter an ISBN we do not check the validity of the edition data when listing. If you're looking for an exact edition please don't order (at least not without checking with us first, although we don't always have time to check). We aim to dispatch prompty, the service used will depend on order value and book size. We can ship to most countries, see our shipping policies. Payment is via Abe only.
