Akissi - Histoires pimentées #[nn]

Abouet and Sapin's irrepressible young heroine bursts off this sunshine-yellow cover in a bright pink shirt, arms flung wide and grinning with unmistakable mischief — with a startled, airborne sheep careening nearby for good measure. *Histoires pimentées* ("Spicy Stories") promises exactly that: the cheerful chaos that has made Akissi such a delightful presence in francophone comics. Published by Gallimard in 2014, this volume is a warm and wonderfully energetic showcase for one of bande dessinée's most charming young protagonists.
