Les poux #2

The whole lice colony has shown up for class in this cheerfully chaotic second volume from Ramadier and Bourgeau — the bright orange cover bursts with green, blue, and pink bug-eyed creatures crammed around school desks, papers flying everywhere, while a grinning skeleton stands watch near the chalkboard. Tous à l'école! ("Everyone to school!") promises exactly the kind of wonderfully anarchic classroom mischief that makes this French Gallimard series such a delight for young readers. A perfect pick for anyone who loves their humor a little buggy and their school days a lot more interesting than usual.
