Petit Poilu #1

Plunging into the deep blue, this 2007 Dupuis album introduces Petit Poilu — the tiny, spiky-haired hero — surrounded by a wonderfully colorful cast of underwater creatures, including a cheerful orange octopus, a bright red fish, and the looming, mysterious eyes of something much larger lurking in the shadows. Pierre Bailly and Céline Fraipont's bold, graphic art style makes every panel pop with vivid charm perfectly suited for young readers. La Sirène Gourmande promises an aquatic adventure with just the right mix of playful humor and gentle suspense.
