L'Académie Alice #13

Two bright-eyed students — one flashing a peace sign, the other reaching forward with an outstretched hand — share the spotlight on this charming French-edition cover of Tachibana Higuchi's beloved series. The ornate school building and scattered stars and flowers framing the pair capture the warmth and whimsy that have made L'Académie Alice such an enduring shōjo favorite. Volume 13, published by Glénat in 2009, is a lovely addition to any fan's collection of this heartfelt series.
