Ariol #1

A bright yellow cover bursts with the cheerful energy of Ariol himself — a wide-eyed little donkey with oversized glasses, blue ears, and red trousers, arms spread wide as if greeting the whole world. Created by Emmanuel Guibert and Marc Boutavant, this Dutch-language edition ("Ik ben een ezel" — *I Am a Donkey*) brings the beloved series to new young readers via Lannoo's 2022 release, translated by Sylvia Vanden Heede. It's a wonderfully inviting entry point to one of the most charming all-ages comics around.
