Les mômes #1

A charming opener to the Les mômes series from Éditions de la Gouttière, this 2014 album by Delphine Curveele and Dawid introduces us to what looks like a wonderfully everyday moment: a tall, long-nosed adult holding hands with a spirited red-haired child on a grassy patch, both seemingly captivated by a delicate butterfly drifting overhead. The warm, expressive artwork promises the kind of gentle humor and big-hearted storytelling that makes all-ages comics so endearing.
