Babi

The first years of the life of Babi, a young deer, and the trials he will have to face in the forest.
A story of initiation into nature, an anthem that invites us to feel the magic, the beauty and the dangers of wildlife.

The modern illustration by Benjamin Lacombe beautifully highlights the classic text by Felix Salten. Alternating sketch with coal and painting with color, moving between the fleeting artistic atmosphere and the subtle obsession, he immerses us in the life of the forest, which is full of experiences and whistles of conflicting feelings.

A book with a "lace" cover and a surprise tour among the trees of the forest.

The name Babi is associated in our imagination with idyllic scenes flooded with a delightful sense of innocence, combined with the famous Walt Disney movie. In fact, the animation offers only a visual variation - compared to a literary adaptation - of a novel that remains largely unknown: the masterpiece of Felix Salten, the flagship of Austrian literature, with the original title Bambi: Eine Lebensgesch dem Walde (Babi: The story of a life in the forest)
