Catherine Posted April 30, 2013 Share Posted April 30, 2013 My boys have been Asterix fans for years now, the first fan is now a sophomore in high school but still occasionally rereads them, but now my 11 yo is rereading for the umpteenth time and discovering Latin words and phrases he missed the first time, as well as history and geography. Anyone else love Asterix? http://www.amazon.com/Asterix-Gaul-Rene-Goscinny/dp/0752866052/ref=sr_1_5?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1367341579&sr=1-5&keywords=asterix Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rdj2027 Posted April 30, 2013 Share Posted April 30, 2013 Yes, I loved them as a kid and now my youngest son is reading them. I have the German and Latin versions though for added fun :tongue_smilie:. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is us too only that we don't have the Latin version but do have a couple German ones. I grew up reading Asterix as well and son loves it. He needs Asterix, as well as huge doses of TinTin, Peanuts and Calvin and Hobbes. These comics help us all stay sane lol. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rivka Posted April 30, 2013 Share Posted April 30, 2013 Recent discovery here, but now Alex is obsessed with them. :-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Five More Minutes Posted April 30, 2013 Share Posted April 30, 2013 Asterix (and Calvin & Hobbes) are huge favourites here. I think they're opened daily. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sillymommy Posted April 30, 2013 Share Posted April 30, 2013 My kids LOVE Asterix. Dh discovered them while in Germany in the early '90's. He has German & English versions of some. I despise graphic novels, so these are strictly for kids & daddy bonding time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ali in OR Posted April 30, 2013 Share Posted April 30, 2013 My 7th grader has been reading them since 1st grade. Youngest loves them too. I think we get a couple out of the library every time we go. Tintin and Calvin & Hobbes are also favorites. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
