Tintin (Volume 4) Hergé
Fiction. Hardback from Little, Brown and Company. Originally published in 1945. Published in 1991. Purchased from Amazon.com
My first introduction to the Tintin books was when we lived in the Netherlands in the early 1970's. Over the years I have enjoyed introducing my kids to Tintin, and have relished rereading many of the 23 books in the series. (I haven't read all of them, but have been searching our local library to see about catching up on the ones we don't have.) Originally published in French, the books have been translated into over 50 languages. (Dutch being the first language I read them in. Can't do that anymore even though I still have the book!) I enjoy these three in one books because they are more compact than the individual editions. I do like the individual ones too, though. They have the advantage of being the original format, plus being a better choice for seeing the detail in the artwork.
Publisher's summary:
