An iconic graphic novel on par with "Tintin" about travel and friendship.
In the dead of night, Yakari and Little Thunder are awakened by unexpected guests. It turns out that animals are disappearing all over the forest. The parents of a little raccoon have vanished. Shoutin' Beaver went looking for them and never returned, either. Yakari and Little Thunder begin an investigation, but the further they travel into the wild hills, the more uneasy they become. An owl mysteriously advises them to turn back, and a menacing roar echoes from the summit…
What do you do when your friends are being bullied by someone very powerful? How do you overcome a villain with cunning and reform their character? That is what "Yakari and the Grizzly" is about—a detective story in which a Native American boy wittily reforms an insolent brute.
Derib and Job have created a wonderful world where there is a place for true friendship, heroic deeds, and mutual support. At the same time, they have managed to pay due attention to the culture of the indigenous peoples of America and child psychology in general. The adventures of Yakari have inspired several directors to create animated series and a feature-length animated film.
