內容簡介

  且看跌破眾人眼鏡的瘦皮猴拳王,如何不屈不撓地戰勝人生難題!

  二十世紀初的巴黎,住著一位低調謙和的郵差Lalouche,他個子不高,但有靈活的雙手、一雙快腿以及強而有力的臂膀。日復一日,他勤奮地奔走四方傳遞信息,直到主管決定用電動車取代他們這些步行送信的郵差後,失業的Lalouche被迫轉行,以他平日的嗜好──法式拳擊來維持生計。

  拳擊場上,面對眾多拳手對他瘦小身材的質疑,Lalouche從不示弱,也不輕言放棄。或許,這位小巨人只是「剛剛好地」夠快、夠敏捷、夠強壯,才會一一打敗輕視他的對手,甚至贏過以出拳兇猛聞名的Anaconda。而此時,郵局主管發現電動車的缺點,希望Lalouche可以返回崗位。拳王Lalouche會做出什麼決定呢?

  《The Mighty Lalouche》以頗具歷史感的法式拳擊競技為主軸,搭配知名插畫家Sophie Blackall逗趣生動的繪圖,是一部洋溢著幽默、勇氣與智慧的精采繪本!(文/博客來編譯)


  "A bona fide knockout. C'est formidable!" declares Publishers Weekly in a starred review.

  In Paris, France, there lived a humble postman named Lalouche. He was small, but his hands were nimble, his legs were fast, and his arms were strong. When his job was replaced by an electric car, he turned to boxing to support himself and his pet finch, Genevieve. But—"You? A boxer?" the fighters asked. "I could sneeze and knock you down!" Still, Lalouche refused to give up. And perhaps small Lalouche was just nimble . . . just fast . . . and just strong enough to beat his fierce competitors. This is a marvelous story, full of humor and heart, and illustrated by Sophie Blackall, winner of a New York Times Best Illustrated Award.
