My Trip with Drip


Winner of the Max and Moritz PrizeFacing death leads to the most unexpected friendships: In the surprising German comic of the year, a foul-mouthed lone wolf and a toxic bunny set off together on an action-packed road trip.The Wolf’s Code says that if someone saves your life, you need to return the favor. And if a bunny rabbit plugged into an IV drip saves your life, you’re in for a real adventure. The two unforgettable protagonists fight for their lives on every page. The two animals face trigger-happy hunters, scale frozen mountains, nab a motorcycle and set fire to a cabin. As Wolf nurses Bunny back to health, they stare down death with a fearless spirit that is both hilarious and touching. Praised for its subtle humor and inspirational “graphic medicine,” My Trip with Drip began as a book about the author''s own experience with illness, but became so much more: a triumphant story of courage, survival and friendship.Right now, the description is slightly short. We might recommend adding one more brief paragraph, perhaps outlining the contents of the book some more, or talking about how it is a great resource for talking to kids about illness.
