If you love fairytales, you will love Princess of the Wild Sea. This charming middle grade novel has everything to please magic lovers : a courageous princess ready to do anything to save her people, heroes from another world on a mission and magical aunts with extraordinary powers. I really enjoyed the story : the word weaving is perfect and I really appreciated the retelling of Sleeping Beauty.

Monstres est un incroyable roman jeunesse illustré. Les illustrations en noir et blanc et l’histoire sont fascinantes. Si vous cherchez un roman court atmosphérique, c’est certainement celui-ci. Ce livre est de toute beauté. L’influence de Max et les Maximonstres de Sendak est certaine, mais avec un rebondissement inattendu. Je n’en dirai pas plus pour ne pas ruiner la surprise.
