Was there a movie or something? Anyway, this sounds kind of quirky! Especially the stuff about the yeti lol. I like when artwork is nuanced and detailed and really adds to the story. Sometimes when reading GNs, I get kind of caught up in the words and have to remind myself to slow down and pay attention to everything in the pictures.

I didn't learn that the cartoon was based upon a book until later. It does sound like a fun read and I always loved that he had a pet dog as well (who doesn't love a dog?). Glad you enjoyed this because it seems like it's just that right level of fun going on in it.Becky Bakerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14938602345709426466noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3952534890282357396.post-64743587997944366752017-12-14T21:50:55.020-08:002017-12-14T21:50:55.020-08:00Ooh, I read all the tintin books as a kid and this...Ooh, I read all the tintin books as a kid and this one was one of my absolute faves!<br /><br />~Mogsy @ BiblioSanctumAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3952534890282357396.post-81827503118490170032017-12-14T18:53:34.418-08:002017-12-14T18:53:34.418-08:00There's a yeti!?

And I will fully admit that like Katherine above me, I was sure that Tintin was the dog, and I also was impressed at his reporting skills, then concerned that a dog had a PET dog because that seemed wrong, until I realized that I was thinking of an entirely different entity too. I like the sound of this one MUCH better :) Shannon @ It Starts at Midnighthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10043593641190645773noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3952534890282357396.post-44274742766004534182017-12-14T16:57:17.380-08:002017-12-14T16:57:17.380-08:00Oh sounds so good.
