“Ariol” is a series of fun comics about the everyday life of a little donkey and his best friend, a mischievous but very endearing piglet. They go to school together, go on vacation together, play together, and goof around together. They were created by Emmanuel Guibert, one of the most respected French comic artists and a winner of the René Goscinny Award for screenwriting, and illustrated by renowned children's illustrator Marc Boutavant.
“Ariol” is one of the rare examples in today’s whirlwind of comics of a truly family-oriented read, where everyone, regardless of age, will find something for themselves. Anyone who has kept even a drop of the child within them. Not the all-knowing and all-denying teenager, but the child—naive, curious, and free from clichés and stereotypes.
Mr. Dog is Monsieur Lebarbos, Ariol's homeroom teacher. The tall, bespectacled spaniel is rarely clean-shaven, but his wonderful lessons always shine! After all, he always has a fascinating game or a funny story up his sleeve to make the material easy to understand. Don't believe it? Then open your notebooks, take your pens, and listen...
