Waterloo and Trafalgar by Olivier Tallec (2012)

Olivier Tallec’s cover is so artistically pleasing, I had to open it up and explore further. The book in hues of orange and blue comprises two characters, Waterloo, and Trafalgar and cleverly explores the futility of war; in a way any child can understand, possibly even better than many adults can. It’s also a wordless book, so popular these last two years, and beautifully done.  Olivier’s blog is exsquisite http://www.oliviertallec.fr/
