Amazon.com description: Product Description:
After a hilariously unsuccessful attempt to infiltrate the quiet little community in drag (which leaves a member of the cast smitten, Some Like It Hot-style), the devious Ratticus engineers the takeover of a neighboring rat colony and builds it into an army that sweeps Sibyl-Anne and her friends off their homestead and onto an island. Battles by land, by sea, and even by air ensue, until finally the wicked are defeated and peace is restored.
Macherotâs charming mouseâs-eye views of bucolic idyll and his fast-paced, witty storytelling turn this book into something like a Pixar version of The Wind in the Willows.
Part of Fantagraphicsâ program of bringing American readers the best of post-Tintin Franco-Belgian all-ages comics, Macherotâs âSibyllineâ series (as it is called in French) is widely regarded as one of the great classics of the field, and is slated for re-release in French in 2011 as part of a âComplete Sibyllineâ project. This is the very first instance of Macherotâs work being translated into English. 64 pages of color comics
