Shorter version of the tales of mischief - sort of a highlights of the book. Nice for younger readers that find the heft of the main book too intimidating.
children's graphic novel (translated from french). Adventures of a little girl living in west Africa (Ivory Coast). The series hasn't found a wide audience in the U.S. yet but the illustrations are cute enough (and there are enough gross-out situations to be of interest to some kids).
Z liked this a lot . . . he compared some of the strips to an African version of Calvin & Hobbes, especially the tapeworm one.
