Écologie, je craque ! #[nn]

Published by Eyrolles in 1993 under their Galileo imprint, this charming volume from Frapar takes an irreverent, humorous look at ecology — a subject that was very much in the public conversation at the time. The cover sets the tone perfectly: two tiny figures stand atop a beautifully rendered globe, one of them apparently venting frustration (that telltale speech bubble!) amid a lush tangle of vegetation crowding one side of the Earth. It's a wry, warmly drawn invitation to laugh at our complicated relationship with the natural world.
