The books in this section are usually hardcover and in decent shape, though we'll sometimes offer hard-to-find books in lesser condition at a reduced price. We often use stock images of books from the web, so if you need to see photos of the actual copy, please request that via email.
Babar's family is on a visit to the country. While there, the young ones organize a picnic, during which they have an adventure involving a tribe of African natives.
Please Note:
The Babar books are definitely products of their time. Both Jean and his son Laurent portray "French" colonialism in a positive light and in this book, Laurent's stereotypical images of African "savages" may well offend readers. Also, if you have a hard time reading cursive, this story's text is completely in that style!
