Synopsis:

In the goofy space adventures of a young girl called Sardine, encounters aren't always friendly: weird creatures, cosmic squids, masters of the universe, talking clouds and evil beings abound. In this volume of twelve stories, Supermuscleman, the chief executive dictator of the universe, is on a mission to make all the galaxy's kids behave. Sardine must enlist the help of her cousin Lou and her pirate uncle, the gruff Captain Yellow Shoulder, to outwit him and his evil plans. The first book in an exciting series by two of France's most talented authors, "Sardine" is a feast for the imagination of young readers. Emmanuel Guibert, an outstanding artist and graphic storyteller, takes turn on the script; while Sfar illuminates the writing with rambunctious, high-energy artwork.

About the Author: Write Emmanuel Guibert is also an outstanding artist and graphic storyteller. The author of Alan's War (forthcoming from First Second), he is also a virtuoso talent both as a writer and an artist. Artist Joann Sfar is the author of Vampire Loves, as well as The Professor's Daughter (also forthcoming First Second), another collaboration with Emmanuel Guibert.
