BOOK / "THE SHARK KING." R. Kikuo Johnson

Illustrated, Children from 3 years and up

Transmitted from parents to children for generations, the legend of the shark king, the mysterious being – sometimes a man and sometimes a shark – that dwells in the depths, continues to captivate the children of Polynesia. Set in the Hawaiian paradise and in an uncertain time, this short but profound comic brings together humor, drama, and adventure to speak to us about the love between parents and children, and above all, the need to embrace our own identity in an environment often hostile to those who are different. R. Kikuo Johnson, a native Hawaiian like his characters, has created a comic that even the youngest members of the family can read, and it doesn't disappoint any adult: clear, simple, classic in the best sense, full of life and color.

Designed and produced with all the love in the world, this book inaugurates a collection that we wanted to lead with the heading "Children can read comics too," and it includes some brief advice to guide the little ones through the pages of a comic.
