Another nice little present for Christmas I found in our mailbox, this time from Germany. Hanser Verlag, who already edited Otto (fährt Auto), releases a German version in february 2012 of ‘l’ABC de TOM’ (that I originally made in French, in 2010). The big horizontal, calendar-like format has been replaced by a proper regular book shape and my absurd attempts to French humor are now eloquently ‘übersetzt’ by the great Harry Rowohlt.

The editor even added some publicity for the author and his Otto-character. Ganz toll! (I gave this copy to my father, whose German is far better than mine)
