Mr. Hulot is back in this wordless picture book celebrating the comical misadventures of a day at the beach! Created and played by French comic actor and filmmaker Jacques Tati, Mr. Hulot is a beloved character in France. David Merveille's meticulously designed comic strip style illustrations capture the imagination and good nature of Mr. Hulot as he navigates the hilarity of a missing shoe, a disgruntled fisherman, a mistaken pipe, and more. Like Merveille's earlier book, 'Hello, Mr. Hulot', 'Mr. Hulot at the Beach' is a visual treat and a true delight to the observant viewer. AGES: 4-8 AUTHOR: David Merveille works for the press and teaches graphics and illustration at the Institut Saint-Luc in Brussels. He has worked on many publicity campaigns in France and Belgium, and creates posters and illustrations for a daily newspaper called La Libre Belgique. Other books by Merveille include 'Hello, Mr. Hulot!'

Industry Reviews

"Evoking the elegant, pratfall-powered world of silent film comedy, this droll wordless book continues the story begun in Merveille s 'Hello, Mr. Hulot.'"- Maria Russo, New York Times Books Review"
"Despite the simplicity of the illustrations, observant readers will be rewarded by clever sight gags and humorous details."- Summer Hayes, Booklist
..".young audiences unexposed as yet to the Chaplins and Keatons of yore will have no trouble either connecting the dots or appreciating the visual jokery. Deft hommage, but hilarious even outside that context." Kirkus Reviews"
Mr. Hulot may not be as well-known on this side of the pond as the Little Tramp or Buster Keaton, but he definitely merits a seat in the same row. Kirkus Reviews (Starred Review) on Hello, Mr. Hulot"
