Monsieur Hulot at the Beach

Publisher Rouergue
Category Children's Books
Age 3-6
The poetic, charming world of Monsieur Hulot's Holiday as captured in David Merveille's fun and whimsical illustrations.

After Monsieur Hulot's Parrot (2006) and Hello, Monsieur Hulot (2010), David Merveille pays fresh tribute to Jacques Tati's character, imagining an encounter between Monsieur Hulot and a small boy on the beach at Saint-Marc-sur-Mer, where Jacques Tati filmed Monsieur Hulot's Holiday.
Hulot's mischievous accomplice, the boy keeps the story moving forward in a series of gags suffused with Tati's familiar comic, poetic wit.
