Panpi & Gorri - The Adventure Specialists
Panpi and Gorri are cousins and they spend all their time together. In turn, they are stuntmen, explorers, detectives: their imagination turns every little event of life into a great, homemade adventure.
These pieces of childhood are full of wit, accurate, and tender, without ever being mawkish. Panpi and Gorri are incredibly clearheaded, like two real philosophers:
”Hey, you just agreed with me, it’s weird... Yes, it’s uncanny, I feel like we’re missing something”.Also available in this series: Panpi & Gorri, Volume 2: More Snacks, Less Tasks!
IN THE MEDIA
“Thanks to their whimsy, boldness, and logic, Panpi and Gorri turn their everyday life into an field of adventure. A must-have for mischievous minds, and a recommandation to all others.”
