Críctor is a charming picture book that tells the story of Madame Louise Bodot, an elderly woman who receives a peculiar package from Africa: a large snake. With a great sense of humor and a touch of surrealism, Tomi Ungerer presents a story where friendship and originality break down prejudices, turning this reptile into the most faithful and beloved pet of the protagonist. This classic of children's literature, originally published in 1963, stands out for its freshness and its ability to captivate readers of all generations.
