His favorite quote:

"Strange to prepare to speak with a spirit, right? We were at that moment in a mixture of dread and excitement. "

Why these books?

  • Because if many children have discovered the pleasures of reading with the famous Chair de Poule collection, it is now possible to offer the same happiness to a new generation of readers from 9 years old with this new Trouille Academie collection, at Poulpe Fictions. And just for that, I sign!
  • Because Bertrand Puard's pen is perfectly suited to a young audience without infantilizing its reader. Here we find real novels for children with illustrations here and there for a smooth transition to readings of young adolescents.
  • Because two volumes of this new collection are released the same day to give the choice to its audience. On the one hand, The School of All Fears , where a student in the class of Victor and Leïla disappears from the class photo to be replaced by another that nobody knows. On the other, Emma will have to ward off a curse that has hurt her loved ones since she discovered The Magic Box , adorned with mysterious symbols.
  • Because you will find at the end of this collection "Bonus Trouillencyclopédie" consisting of practical sheets to explain a concept mentioned in the novel. For example, in The School of All Fears , the author explains simply and in a few pages the mechanisms of fear in the brain. A great idea to learn while having fun!
  • Because this series promises us adventures to make the youngest shiver , all in several volumes independent of each other but which have one thing in common: the mysterious Trouille Académie. These disturbing, modern and well-written stories could well constitute the new favorite series of your fantasy fans.
