POSTER 22x22 cm LITTLE NICOLAS LA RECRE

“When I grow up, I will buy myself a class, just to play in it! For little Nicolas, Goscinny invents a kid's language that appeals to children as much as it makes their parents smile. Combined with the marvelous drawings of Sempé, these stories become an international bestseller and rise to the rank of classic of our literature. The extraordinary complicity of the duo of young authors formed by Goscinny and Sempé, reveals a real universe. “Goscinny arrived with a text about a child who told of his life with his friends, who all had strange names: Rufus, Alceste, Maixent, Agnan, Clotaire… The general supervisor was nicknamed Bouillon. It was on: René had found the formula,” says Sempé. The first adventure of Petit Nicolas appeared on March 29, 1959 in Sud Ouest-Dimanche. For seven years, Goscinny and Sempé bring Nicolas to life every week, and compose 222 stories. Through Nicolas and his friends, they bring their own memories to life. "Sensations, more than memories: the smell of chocolate rolls at the end of school, the atmosphere of recess, all this swarm of childhood that Sempé felt so well", said Goscinny . © IMAV editions/Goscinny-Sempé.
