Recommended: Skip by Molly Mendoza
Gloopy and Bloom’s lives are thrown together when a misstep causes them to go world hopping, jumping from place to place, trying to find a way home.
They encounter friend and foe, danger and cheese, and learn that certain problems transcend parallel universes, no matter how fantastical that universe might be.
Did I mention the art? This book is fucking gorgeous, melding cartoon illustration with literalism.
Each color palette is explored to within an inch of its life, printed on thick art paper for the cherishing.
Skip is written and illustrated by Molly Mendoza. Published by Nobrow.
