«Marcellin Caillou» is the illustrated children's story by Jean-Jacques Sempé, published by Gallimard in paperback (161 pages, in French).
The protagonist is a boy who, despite being like everyone else, blushes for no reason and even without any apparent motive. This peculiarity marks his daily life and gives rise to everyday scenes full of tenderness and humor, always with Sempé's characteristic line.
The work was originally published in 1969. This 1999 edition is part of the Folio Junior Édition Spéciale collection.
For young readers and for admirers of Sempé's work who prefer an original edition in French.
Jean-Jacques Sempé, usually known as Sempé, was a French cartoonist. He is known for the series of children's books he created with René Goscinny, Le Petit Nicolas, and also for his poster-like illustrations, usually drawn from a distant or high viewpoint depicting detailed countrysides or cities. For decades, he created covers for The New Yorker.
