Toto Trouble #1

The first volume of Toto Trouble arrives with a cover that sets the tone perfectly — a mischievous red-haired kid gleefully sliding down a stair railing while a group of wide-eyed classmates watches from below and an exasperated girl with a shoulder bag looks on with obvious disapproval. Thierry Coppée's energetic art captures the chaos of school-age mischief with a lively, cartoony warmth that feels right at home for younger readers and parents alike. At $7.99, this 2014 NBM release is a cheerful entry point into what promises to be a fun, irreverent series.
