Collectie Fenix #169

A moonlit forest comes alive on this 2023 Belgian collection as Jip, a wide-eyed girl in purple, and a startled older man scramble through the trees while wild boars, rabbits, a winged owl, and a magnificent stag fill the clearing around them — and a blue bird takes flight overhead. The title Het Sprekende Bos ("The Speaking Forest") perfectly captures the sense of a woodland teeming with animated, almost conspiratorial wildlife. Created by Kilt and Jean-Pol, this Collectie Fenix volume promises lively adventure with charm to spare.
