The hilarious, heartbreaking, and painfully true life of a girl growing up in Paris, from the author of The Arab of the Future. Every week, the comic book artist Riad Sattouf has a chat with his friend\'s 10-year old daughter, Esther. She tells him about her life, her family, her school, her friends, her hopes, her dreams and her fears. And then he creates a one-page comic strip based on what she says. This book is a collection of 156 of those strips, comprising the first three volumes as they appeared in Europe, spanning Esther\'s life from age 10 to 12. (W/A/CA) Riad Sattouf
