Love: The Lion

Autor Frederic Brremaud De (artist) Federico Bertolucci
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 21 iun 2016 – vârsta de la 13 până la 16 ani
The third volume in the lavishly illustrated series of wildlife graphic novels, each following a single central animal through an adventurous day in their natural environment. Each tale depicts genuine natural behavior through the dramatic lens of Disney-esque storytelling, like a nature documentary in illustration.

Both heartwarming and heartbreaking, this volume focuses on a solitary Lion as it wanders the plains of Africa, handling the daily hunt, and vicious rivalry, without a Pride of its own. The circle of Life takes center stage in a world where predator and prey trade places on a regular basis, and Family is something worth fighting -- and dying -- for. This exciting tale, written by Frederic Brremaud, is told without narration or dialogue, conveyed entirely through the beautiful illustrations of Federico Bertolucci.

A beautiful, powerful tale of survival in the animal kingdom that explores the all-too-identifiable, universal concepts of Life, Courage, Aging, and ultimately Love.

KIRKUS --Astonishinglybeautiful...


BOOKLIST (STARRED) -- A lion's life is not aneasy one, and the third volume of the nature-focused Love series follows asolitary young male as he tries to fend for himself in the forests and plains ofthe Serengeti. Driven by hunger and loneliness, the lion wanders the changinglandscape, finding food where he can and defending himself against attackers ashe searches for the safety and stability that comes with a pride's largenumbers. Framed by memories from his youth, this lion's story follows just oneday, yet contains a lifetime of experience. While the wordless narrative isimpressive in its emotional range and depth of character, Bertolucci'sillustrations are an absolute marvel. Exquisitely rendered in lushly coloredpanels, they capture an entire ecosystem from the smallest of creatures to thelargest link in a complex food chain. The deaths of creatures in the wild can beviolent and intense, but they are realistically rendered and so firmly setwithin the larger framework of natural order one can almost hear DavidAttenborough narrating the panels for the reader. Beautifully produced in bothconcept and execution, this brief window into the world of nature is highlyrecommended for all graphic novel collections.
