«Le tournoi de karaté» is a children's book by Virginie Grimaldi and Margaux Zinsner published by Hachette Jeunesse in 2024, in hardcover and in French.
The karate teacher arrives late and the class turns into a little chaos just as the belt exams approach. The story shows that the sporting spirit is not only about competing: sometimes you have to help each other train and reach the goal together. The illustrations, with animals in a dojo, reinforce that friendly tone.
For young readers who enjoy stories about sports, animals and cooperation.
Virginie Grimaldi is a French novelist. She published her first novel Le premier jour du reste de ma vie in 2015 and followed this with Tu comprendras quand tu seras plus grande (2016), Le parfum du bonheur est plus fort sous la pluie (2017), Il est grand temps de rallumer les étoiles (2018), Quand nos souvenirs viendront danser (2019), Et que ne durent que les moments doux (2020). Her six novels all became bestsellers. Many of her works – notably the first ones – had been analysed by some media as being close to chick lit and "feel-good" literature. In 2020 she reached second place on the Le Figaro/GfK Top 10 of French novelists selling the most books in France.
