Mon ami Grompf #4

Volume 4 of Nob's charming all-ages series for Glénat delivers exactly the kind of cheerful chaos the title promises — a massive, furry Grompf comes crashing through a bedroom doorway, feathers flying everywhere, as a wide-eyed kid looks up in delighted alarm from his bed. A group of children watches the mayhem from the doorway, rounding out a scene that perfectly captures the lovable disorder of having a very large, very energetic creature as your best friend. Un Copain au Poil ("A Hairy Pal") is warm, funny, and every bit as lively as you'd hope from this 2008 Glénat series.
