Description: "The whole world now runs on computers. They're everywhere, from your pocket phone to your microwave oven. But, what exactly is a computer? How could you possibly build machines that calculate things, play video games, and dim the lights on command? Professor Isabella Brunel, Victorian Era Computer Expert (and a Tyrannosaurus Rex), narrates a screwball comedy romp through the fundamentals of computer architecture."--Provided by publisher.

Jerel Dye has been creating art and comics in the Boston area since 2005.

In 2012, he received the MICE comics grant for his mini-comic From the Clouds. His first graphic novel Pigs Might Fly was released in 2017.
