Stephane est tres intéressant parce que il aime l’art mais il est un enfant petit. Paul est la plus comparable personnage J’ai déjà lire a peut près. Sont manque d'intérêt dans l’art et sont tendance à discuter des fantômes est très étrange, mais nous avons tous des défauts. Je pense qu'il fournit un merveilleux commentaire sur l'innocence enfantine et sur la distance à laquelle nous nous sommes éloignés d'un sentiment d'unité en tant que société. J'ai également apprécié les références aux défauts du capitalisme non contrôlé des parents absents de Stephane. 10/10 Je ne recommande pas.

Stéphane seems really interesting because he loves art, yet he is a small child. Paul is the most relatable person I’ve ever read about. His lack of interest in art and his tendency to discuss ghosts is very strange, but we all have flaws. I think it provides a wonderful commentary on childlike innocence and how far we have strayed from a sense of unity as a society. I also enjoyed the references to the flaws of unchecked capitalism from Stephane’s absent parents. 10/10 Would not recommend.

It is an appropriate book for those who are learning French, especially for a level A2, B1. The focus is really on reading, despite the quality of the plot. If the focus is to read to improve reading skills in French at these levels, okay. But in fact, I consider it not worth the investment, it is possible to find similar materials on the internet for free.

I wanted to give this book 5 stars, but I realized that was mostly because I’m proud that I understood every bit of it! Any words I didn’t understand, I was able to figure out through context. The story was fun. Just the type of thing a 1-3rd grader might like to read.

It was a very predictable story. It was very informative though and it was nice to read a story in French for a change.
