Gross werden mit den Schlümpfen #[2]

From the Groß werden mit den Schlümpfen ("Growing Up with the Smurfs") series comes this charming 2021 German-language volume subtitled Der Schlumpf, der immer tollpatschig war — "The Smurf Who Was Always Clumsy." The cover says it all: a hapless little Smurf has just sent a bucket of pink paint flying spectacularly into the air, splattering everywhere, while a second Smurf looks on in wide-eyed disbelief. It's a delightfully relatable scene that makes this Toonfish/Splitter Verlag entry an appealing pick for young readers navigating the everyday tumbles of growing up.
