Akissi: Tales of Mischief

Marguerite Abouet was born in Abidjan, Ivory Coast, in 1971. Following the tremendous success of her comic Aya of Yop City , Marguerite now dedicates all of her time to writing. Mathieu Sapin was born in Dijon, France, in 1974. He studied in l'Ecole superieure des Arts Decoratifs de Strasbourg before becoming a renowned illustrator for many children's magazines and publishers in France.

This is a colourful collection of stories presented in comic-strip form for an easy read with fun illustrations. Great for reluctant readers and new readers, too.
