About the series
In this acclaimed French series from Soleil, young Cerise, an aspiring writer, spends her days observing the adults in her small town, filling her notebooks with their stories. Over the course of five albums (2012–2017), writer Joris Chamblain and artist Aurélie Neyret craft a gently suspenseful, emotionally rich mystery about family secrets and the power of imagination. The series stands out for its warm, watercolor-infused art and its respectful, child's-eye view of complex adult lives, earning it a devoted readership and multiple international editions.
