Garden Of Flesh
This child-friendly volume begins in medias res, as mouse Sibyl-Anne and her friends battle the rats attacking their island.
Sibyl-Anne and the Honeybees picks up right where its predecessor left off: With the plucky field mouse and her motley group of friends retrenched on the tiny island in the middle of the lake, surrounded by the marauding hordes of rats. Alas, tiring of the standoff and fearing an imminent attack by sea, the courageous but ill-advised Sergeant Verboten decides to play the hero and sneak off to attempt to destroy the rat flotilla. When he is captured and used as a hostage, tied to the main mast of a rat destroyer no less, it’s the beginning of a rat-and-mouse game, the tide of which turns only with the appearance of an unexpected, yellow-and-black-striped group of tiny allies whom our heroine has befriended... One of the great classics of Franco-Belgian comics from the pages of the legendary Spirou magazine, Raymond Mach-erot’s Sibyl-Anne is being released in English for the first time. Fifty years after its original release, its bucolic charms are as fresh as ever. Full-color illustrations throughoutCountry | USA |
