Kees de jongen

Dick Matena adapts the classic Dutch children's novel Kees de jongen into a single, graphic novel-length comic for Athenaeum, launched in 2012. As both writer and artist, Matena brings his signature, detailed linework to this faithful, standalone adaptation of a beloved story. This series matters as a notable, one-volume graphic novel that preserves a cornerstone of Dutch literature for a new generation of readers.
