Synopsis
Mr. Hulot is back in this wordless picture book celebrating the comical misadventures of a day at the beach! Created and played by French comic actor and filmmaker Jacques Tati, Mr. Hulot is a beloved character in France. David Merveille’s meticulously designed comic strip style illustrations capture the imagination and good nature of Mr. Hulot as he navigates the hilarity of a missing shoe, a disgruntled fisHermann, a mistaken pipe, and more. Like Merveille's earlier book, Hello, Mr. Hulot, Mr. Hulot at the Beach is a visual treat and a true delight to the observant viewer.

From School Library Journal
PreS-Gr 3—Based on the French comedy film series by actor and filmmaker Jacques Tati, this wordless comic strip picture book is a cheerful tale of a hapless beachgoer. As in the original Monsieur Hulot films, the gags are playful and physical: a lost pipe is replaced by a shell, a seagull steals a shoe that becomes a nest, and Mr. Hulot falls asleep and ends up in England. Clever grayscale illustrations—with a pop of yellow in Mr. Hulot's ever-present newspaper—cinematically play with shadow, stripes, sand, and waves, and the humor is paced well in panels that shift in perspective. A visual treat with an intriguing cinematic history. VERDICT Perhaps best for large collections, this is an excellent wordless picture book for high- and lowbrow perusers.—Lisa Nowlain, Darien Library, CT
