A tiny little boy and his single father are the heroes of these unpredictable adventures that soon take a disastrous turn. The kid's small size makes him the ideal prey to crocodiles, the Pygmies' hostage, and in brief, the victim of numerous traps. Strongly reminiscent of early American colour comic strips (as as Feininger's), Olivier Schrauwen's work oozes a crazy humour that brings out the father's love to his son.
