Born from the Instagram-famous comic strip “Seattle Walk Report,” the book Seattle Walk Report: An Illustrated Walking Tour Through 23 Seattle Neighborhoods (August 13, Sasquatch Books, $19.95) by creator Susanna Ryan gives a whimsical tour through Seattle’s neighborhoods. Like the comic strip, the book focuses on smaller details discovered along the way, such as cute dogs, big rocks, mysterious debris and lesser known historical facts. With new comics and tips for how to get the most out of your urban hike, the book shows you the quirky side of Seattle and encourages you to explore the city on foot and with an open mind.
