Life goes on for this… unusual family!

The daily misadventures of mischievous Belgian youngster Albert, as recounted in comic strip form by legendary "ligne claire" cartoonist Yves Chaland.
The art of Yves Chaland ("Chaland Anthology - Freddy Lombard Vol. 1 et 2") tackles many different universes and genres. In the case of "Young Albert," the author sarcastically explores intimate, everyday events in a largely autobiographical way. Mastering both art and writing skills in his short time on earth, Yves Chaland, is remembered as a genius who tragically left us to soon, but who thankfully gifted us a body of work that lives on as a major contributions to the world of comics.
Kid Lucky loves to have fun—he plays lacrosse, builds tree houses, puts on magic shows, and races frogs. As if having fun doesn’t keep him busy enough, he’s also got chores to do, baths to take, math problems to solve, and a girl to ask to a dance. Daily life is always interesting in Kid’s little Texas town—he meets some mighty fascinating critters there, and some of the most fascinating ones walk on two legs.
He’s got a yellow shirt and a red neckerchief, unruly locks and a sprig of grass in his mouth. He maintains law and order at the Nothing Gulch School, and he runs faster than his shadow as soon as there’s even the slightest hint of chores to be done.

This is the birth of a legend: the greatest (but still quite small) cowboy of the Wild West! In this first album, Kid Lucky learns his very first cowboy lessons.

A kiosk is a place to have some rest, to have fun, to talk… But it is also a watchtower from where one may stare at the world. Every morning, the roller blind is raised like hope.
