Features: Introduction This book is listed as an outstanding classic in French children's literature. It tells the story of a boy of around ten years old who, due to not receiving his parents' affection and often facing cold treatment from his family, gets involved in many absurd acts. However, as he grows older and starts school, he finally begins to rebel and learns to be independent. The features of this imported edition are: retaining its original flavor while being highly readable; the fresh and concise writing style is full of childlike charm, complemented by illustrations drawn by modern artists, which add an extra touch of whimsy to the original work. Each page is accompanied by annotations to help readers better understand the text, and a glossary at the end of the book is available for reference.
