Trois aventures de nos sept ours nains enfin rassemblées dans un seul livre! Autant dire que le défilé de héros névrosés, de princesses hystériques et de monstres ridicules a un petit quelque chose de prometteur. Quand un prince s’appelle Boucle d’Or et que les ours ne sont pas trois mais sept, c’est compliqué mais on s’en sort. Quand un chat aux bottes fourrées sonne à la porte de sept ours nains, ça n’arrange pas tellement nos histoires mais bon... Quand un ours nain part chercher un prince pour une enquiquineuse de princesse en détresse, n’en parlons pas! Grâce à plein d’ours nains, les trois premiers opus de la série à succès sont enfin réunis :- Boucle d’or et les sept ours nains (2004)- La Faim des sept ours nains (2005)- La Belle aux ours nains (2009) On ne se lasse pas des illustrations désopilantes et des dialogues mordants d’Émile Bravo qui nous propose une version des contes bien à lui.
