(3) 1-3 Tib & Tumtum series. Translated by Carol Klio Burrell. Illustrated by Bannister. Tib, a young caveboy who is teased about the birthmark on his face, makes friends with a shy dinosaur with a similar marking. Of course, Tib has a hard time convincing his tribe that Tumtum is real, seeing as dinosaurs are long-extinct. Suitable for younger comic fans, much of the graphic novel's humor is visual, relayed skillfully in Bannister's lively art.
