Martin Pebble

A French classic since 1969, this delightful story about a little boy who blushes all the time for no particular reason is now available in English for the first time. Written and illustrated by the New Yorker cover artist Jean-Jacques Sempé. Martin Pebble is a timeless, touching and humorous book that brings to life the adventures of a little boy who blushes a lot, and who is happiest in the summer, when everyone else has a red face too. He sets out to find a reason for his strange affliction, and finds a friend instead — Roddy Rackett, who keeps on sneezing, even when he doesn't have a cold.
