Anna and Froga: Want a Gumball? by Anouk Ricard (Drawn & Quarterly)
Anouk Ricard’s Anna and Froga, which was recently translated from French to English, follows the adventures of Anna and her best friend Froga.
“The humour, which doesn’t talk down to kids, and the realistically flawed personalities of the characters are a big part of the charm of the writing,” says Peter Birkemoe, owner of The Beguiling and Little Island Comics in Toronto, where the book is currently a bestseller.
