Welcome to Litsy!

Flying to China, an airplane crashes in #Nepal. Tintin‘s friend Chang was on the plane and can‘t be found. So Tintin, cute little Snowy his dog, and his buddy the Captain head to the Himalayan Mountains to try to find Chang. Most of this early version of a graphic novel happens in Nepal so I think a small part happens in Tibet solely for the alliteration of the title. This was the first time I‘ve read Tintin even though my husband has all of ⬇️

Sure enough it looks like the beginnings of an adventure is in store in #Nepal! #foodandlit @Catsandbooks

Picking this one out of my husband‘s huge Tintin collection to read for #foodandlit #Nepal

Possibly my favourite Tintin: a fast-paced plot, yetis, Haddock, beautiful art.

Been reading these since I was a child. I 💙 Snowy! @bookriot #riotgrams #tintin #milou

I loved it! The Captain is so perfect. ? Blustering and crotchety, but always there for Tintin.

*Bella says "Good job, Snowy!" (She isn't passed out - She listens better with her eyes closed ?)

I am going to seek out the other Tintin stories! Possibly in the original version, to help me improve my horrible French. ?

Thank you so much, @sisilia !

Thank you, thank you, thank you @sisilia ! I love it all!!! Lovely gifts! REAL tea, candy, sticky notes and (con'd in comments) I've never read a Japanese mystery, or surprisingly, a Sue Grafton - so both great ideas! I'm very excited to try a new golden age British mystery & the cover is 😍! I may have squealed a bit when I unwrapped Tintin! After we talked about it, I've been on the lookout, but I hadn't found one yet. I can't wait to read it!!

This is the book that started everything. I was a loner as a kid, and I found new friends in this series. ❤️❤️❤️

#Day1 of #riotgram is #shelfie. So here is my son's bookshelf in his bedroom, most of the Tintin books are piled by the bed.
