We Are All Smurfs!

Through observation and cultural research, we derive the essence of smurfdom with comparisons and contrasts to our own civilization. Despite the microscale of these creatures in comparison to homo sapiens, their caeruleus epidermis, their dwellings in hollowed-out mycota, and their penchant for gluttony, numerous parallels can be drawn from points of correlation. From first light to twilight, various activities for growth and personal development are included as well as recreation. Seekers of sociological knowledge will be delighted by Peyo's comprehensive fact-finding investigation with a rhyming scheme.

This was, hands down, one of my favorite books from childhood! I was obsessed with Smurfs. In fact, I think I still have my collection of figures somewhere in storage and should probably try to find them soon.

A day in the life of the Smurfs, from first thing in the morning until bedtime.

Another great book from my childhood rediscovered while organizing my bookshelves.

I’d never have thought this book would be included in the 1001 Children’s Books list! Smurfs? Serious children’s literature?

I must say that I still wonder if I simply am reading an abridged version…or is the wonder of Smurfdom lost in translation?

I don't care how old I grow, I will never stop being enchanted by this book. :D
