Martin Pebble



Martin Pebble by Jean-Jacques Sempe


An interesting illustrated story, with a boy who blushes for no reason, and another boy who sneezes for no reason. Even though it was very short, but the story, read like a children's book did feel very warm on this cold afternoon. One passage of the story struck me as something very true:

"You find an old friend. You're overjoyed. You make plans.
And then you lose touch.

Because you're short of time, you have too much work, the two of you live too far apart.

And for lots of other reasons."

Suffice to say, it made me think about my old friendships in life.
