## Description

desertcart.com: Blue Lotus: 9781405206167: Hergé: Books

Review: Funtastic - My eleven-year old son absolutely loves the entire Tintin series. I purchased all the comics and he so enjoys them that I have to restrict him to reading one a day, which I make available to him when I pick him up at school. They are so well written, clever, and all around entertaining that despite an iPad and an iPhone that my son owns, he opts instead to read his Tintin comic on the drive home from school. Your child will unsuspectingly learn world history and pick up on great vocabulary. Highly, highly recommended!!!
Review: Best Tintin Book Ever? - I love all of Herge's Tintin books, but The Blue Lotus is perhaps his masterwork. I'm happy to report that far from a dated, culturally problematic representation of Japan and China in 1934 (the date of this book's first printing), Herge is incredibly respectful of the cultures, presenting them educationally and observationally, and even sees Tintin criticize anti-Asian racist stereotyping! Aside from this, the story is among the most complex and action-packed of Tintin's adventures. Herge's style is at it's minimal best, and the panels are small and packed with exposition and some of his greatest illustrations.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Another great buy
*by E***T on March 3, 2024*

I am buying the whole series for my kids. Myself I grew up with comic books in Belgium but they were all in flemish so now I am buying the English classics so they get the enjoy them too. These books are of excellent quality with no blemishes. They do not come wrapped in plastic but straight in a prime envelop. love these and will buy more.
