Isabelle Darthy, Foreign Rights Director "I’ve always loved this YA novel by Kathleen Karr, and suggested it to Rue de Sèvres for a graphic novel adaptation. The realisation of the project is a huge success and one I’m very proud of."

Missouri, summer 1860. After finishing third grade for the fourth time, 15-year-old Simon is finally allowed to graduate by his teacher, Miss Rogers, who gently pushes him to spread his wings. That same evening, after learning that turkeys are worth 20 times more in Denver than at home, he decides to buy 1,000 birds and take them 1,000 miles to prove he has a head for business. Along with his team of unlikely partners, he will be forced to cross the desert, contend with the Rocky Mountains, and even deal with Native Americans! Will they let this strange caravan pass, allowing Simon to reach Denver and make his fortune?
