sweet details.”

“With Robot Dreams, Sara Varon has managed to make a comic that is not only cute and
fun but heartbreaking as well. This graceful little book is one of the deepest explorations
of friendship in any medium." — Tom Devun, founder of Highwater Books
"There’s more to Sara Varon’s comics than meets the eye. Her art could succeed on its visual
charm alone, but she won't settle for that — her stories are finely wrought and her characters
treated with uncommon delicacy Y and tenderness.” — Jessica Aset, author of La Perdida .
“Chicken and Cat made me super happy. The knowledge that Sara Varon has now drawn a
book about ro akes fant to tack on the word ‘duper’ to my mood.”
— Danie. HANbier, author Lemony Snicket |
