Book Synopsis
The author of The Arab of the Future chronicles the hilarious and heartbreaking true life of a young girl growing up in Paris.

Funny, well-observed...contains immense daring and depth...Sattouf has drawn a portrait of a generation. —Observer, Graphic Novel of the Month
 
Once a week for three years, the comic book artist Riad Sattouf had a chat with his friend’s outgoing young daughter, Esther, in which she told him about her family, her school, her friends, her hopes, her dreams, and her fears. After each meeting, he would create a one-page comic strip based on what she had said. Esther’s Notebooks gathers 156 of those strips, spanning Esther’s life from ages nine through twelve, giving us a delightful look into the daily dramas of this thoughtful, intelligent, and high-spirited girl.

As The Guardian noted: “Each page of Esther’s Notebooks is self-contained—there&rsq
