Welcome to Litsy!

This felt like propaganda?

Crossed another one off the list!

#adventure

Flying to China, an airplane crashes in #Nepal. Tintin‘s friend Chang was on the plane and can‘t be found. So Tintin, cute little Snowy his dog, and his buddy the Captain head to the Himalayan Mountains to try to find Chang. Most of this early version of a graphic novel happens in Nepal so I think a small part happens in Tibet solely for the alliteration of the title. This was the first time I‘ve read Tintin even though my husband has all of ⬇️

Adding this to my completed list!

Sure enough it looks like the beginnings of an adventure is in store in #Nepal! #foodandlit @Catsandbooks

Picking this one out of my husband‘s huge Tintin collection to read for #foodandlit #Nepal

“The secret is to look for the truth.”
This quote encapsulates Tintin‘s adventurous spirit and the importance of seeking knowledge and understanding in a world full of mysteries.

The themes of curiosity and perseverance shine through as Tintin navigates challenges and uncovers secrets, encouraging readers to explore and seek the truth.

This classic graphic novel follows young reporter Tintin and his dog Snowy as they embark on an adventure to uncover the mystery of a shipwreck and its hidden treasure. With engaging storytelling and charming illustrations, Hergé‘s work captures the imagination of readers young and old.

After the exciting build-up of Secret of the Unicorn, the sequel is a bit of an anti-climax. For the first time, we get every famous character associated with Tintin as Professor Calculus makes his debut. It‘s a bit reliant on slapstick but the dialogue, specifically Captain Haddock‘s, is funny. There‘s no disputing the artwork, it‘s glorious as always.
