Tintin Au Pays De L'Or Noir (Les Aventures de Tintin) Hardcover – 31 Oct. 2007

Most enjoyable in original french language

I read this with a student of French and she loves it! We are working through the Tintin books and so far they have all been brilliant - would recommend. Sometimes there is quite a lot of slang/unusual vocab so we need to check in the dictionary a fair bit but is really interesting

I was surprised how small this edition was - it’s listed as paperback, so I thought it was A4 but soft cover, however it is A5 and hardback, which accounts for the lower price. Still possible to enjoy the wonderful Herge illustrations even though they are smaller than usual.

The book was much smaller than expected. A magnifying glass is necessary to read it.
