A review by caarolparker
The Great Outdoors by Catherine Meurisse

3.0

A lovely read.

This graphic novel is about a family that moves to the countryside and the parents introduces to their children the nature around them. WIth one child excited to plant and discover this new world, the other quotes books along her journey to grow a garden like Versailles.

The characters are simple drawings with expression, but the entire graphic novel have beautiful landscapes scenarios. The reading is filled with curiosities about gardening and plantations, all about the farming life.

What did not work for me was the cursive letter, it was a bit difficult to read it.
