Polo: The Runaway Book

A wordless, whimsical journey begins in a single, beautifully illustrated volume from Roaring Brook Press. This 2007 debut follows a small dog named Polo as he sets off on a magical adventure from his cozy home, encountering surreal landscapes and friendly creatures along the way. Created by French artist Régis Faller, the book's charming, paneled storytelling relies entirely on expressive art, making it an accessible and enchanting experience for readers of all ages. Its quiet innovation lies in proving that a comic can tell a complete, heartwarming story without a single word.
