Sempé

René Goscinny

D'abord, il y a eu l'hôtel Beau-Rivage, à Bain-les-Mers, et les nouveaux copains : Blaise, Fructueux, Mamert, Irénée, Fabrice et Côme. Puis un essai manqué de germination de haricot avant de repartir avec la colonie du Camp Bleu où l'on s'amuse drôlement. Vraiment terribles, les vacances du petit Nicolas ! De quoi épater Marie-Edwige Courteplaque à son retour !

Les vacances du petit Nicolas

Jean-Jacques Sempé

Mon premier a un papa qui lui achète tout ce qu'il veut. Mon deuxième est le chouchou de la maîtresse. Mon troisième est le plus fort de la classe. Le papa de mon quatrième est agent de police. Mon cinquième est le dernier de la classe. Mon sixième qui est très gros aime manger. Mon tout est la plus chouette bande de copains qui ait jamais existé : Geoffrey, Agnan, Eudes, Rufus, Clotaire, Maixent, Alceste, Joachim... et le petit Nicolas !

Le petit Nicolas et les copains

Les récrés d'Agnan, Eudes, Rufus, Alceste, Joachim, Maixent, Clotaire, Geoffroy et du petit Nicols ont-elles lieu entre les cours ou pendant les cours ? C'est souvent la question que se posent le Bouillon, le surveillant, le directeur et la maîtresse... Toujours est-il qu'avec cette bande de terribles copains, personne n'a vraiment le temps de s'ennuyer !

Les récrés du petit Nicolas

Tout le monde peut avoir des ennuis. Mais lorsqu'il s'agit du petit Nicolas et de ses copains : Alceste, Eudes, Maixent, Agnan, Clotaire, Geoffroy et Rufus, les ennuis peuvent devenir terribles ! Surtout lorsque papa, mémé, M. Moucheboume, le directeur de l'école, ou le Bouillon s'en mêlent ! Mais avec le petit Nicolas, les choses finissent toujours par s'arranger... même si rien ne se passe vraiment d'une façon très logique !

Le petit Nicolas a des ennuis

Fêter l'augmentation de papa au restaurant, faire des grimaces au lama au zoo avec Alceste, goûter avec l'insupportable cousin Eloi, aller voir les vitrines des grands magasins avec des tas de lumières partout et des gens qui klaxonnent. La vie du Petit Nicolas est pleine de surprises. Mais quand Nicolas répète le gros mot qu'a dit Eudes à la récré, ce sont ses parents qui sont surpris...

As brincadeiras do menino Nicolau

Jean-Jacques Sempe's witty drawings and keen eye for the finer points of the human condition have delighted readers in France and beyond for over forty years. Now, his sharply observed and beautifully drawn cartoons are available in English for the first time. In 'Sunny Spells', originally published in France in 1999, Sempe explores a wide range of topics, from troubled relationships and office politics to doping scandals in the literary world. His cast of characters includes pious churchgoers, amateur painters and lovelorn palaeontologists, as well as psychiatrists, actors and football fans. Many of Sempe's intricate and evocative illustrations are accompanied by laconic, perfectly judged captions, which were translated by Anthea Bell, who also helped to bring Asterix the Gaul to the English-speaking world.

Sempe: Sunny Spells

Jean-Jacques Sempe's witty drawings and keen eye for the finer points of the human condition have delighted readers in France and beyond for over forty years. Now, his sharply observed and beautifully drawn cartoons are available in English for the first time. 'Nothing is Simple' is classic Sempe - a timeless mix of tender moments and absurd situations. Sempe's world is populated by nosy neighbours, mischievous schoolboys and thwarted lovers, by snooty holidaymakers and crowds of frustrated commuters in the big city. Sempe's inimitable drawings are as fresh, engaging and funny today as when they were first published in 1962. The captions were translated by Anthea Bell, who also helped to bring Asterix the Gaul to the English-speaking world.

Sempe: Nothing is Simple

Jean-Jacques Sempe's witty drawings and keen eye for the finer points of the human condition have delighted readers in France and beyond for over forty years. Now, his sharply observed and beautifully drawn cartoons are available in English for the first time. In 'Everything is Complicated', first published in 1963, a number of Sempe's favourite subjects are already clearly in evidence, such as mild-mannered men and women with colourful inner lives and people who choose to express themselves through the medium of the protest sign. There are also cartoons about hapless tourists, pipe-smoking novelists and unruly schoolchildren. Sempe is equally adept at capturing the little indignities (and triumphs) of everyday life as he is at high farce and physical comedy. The captions were translated by Anthea Bell, who also helped to bring Asterix the Gaul to the English-speaking world.

Histoires inédites du petit Nicolas

Renowned New Yorker cover illustrater Jean-Jacques Sempé illustrates the quirky charm of France's capital and it's residents with his signature style and gentle sense of humor and irony. His drawings are famed for their striking use of pen and ink, their inimitable style, and most of all for their satire and tragic-comic vision. The 128 drawings in this charming portfolio are sweet and sentimental. They somehow manage to be gentle even when the topic is difficult. They probe the quirkiness of life in Paris and wordlessly pinpoint the quintessential features of the City of Light, creating a world peopled by lovers strolling along the Seine, culture mavens preening in the Louvre, and characters who are ready to see the comic and the light-hearted beyond life's problems. Anyone who has fallen in love with Paris will be sure to cherish this charming keepsake.
