Tommysaurus Rex

(3) 4-6 When Ely's dog is hit by a car and killed, Ely finds an unlikely replacement pet: a Tyrannosaurus rex. As Ely trains the dinosaur, he learns a little about himself, too. The premise sounds like a romp, but this graphic novel has surprising depth. Like the narrative, the detailed panel illustrations show a mix of emotion and goofiness.
