Still good but not as great as the others. Also had weird 3-Dish type glasses that didn't seem to work right.

2015: Again I loved it also again a short read.
2016: The perfect read for me whenever I'm feeling down or just want a quick book.
2019: Adorable and wonderful, as always.

Another lovely adventure with Ottoline and Mr. Munroe.
Ottoline should pay more attention to her friends, especially when they are trying to tell her something important... So when Mr. Munroe disappears, she heads to Norway to find him, and on the way she meets mermaids, polar bears, an intrepid aviator.
Again, Chris Riddell did a gorgeous illustrated book. The characters are fun and surprising. And as a bonus, you have plenty of drawings to colour in if you feel like it ! (I would dare, but my 7 years old cousin, had a lot of fun colouring her own copy of Ottoline's adventures)

Une nouvelle aventure avec Apolline qui cette fois-ci entame un voyage en sous-marin pour aller retrouver M. Munroe qui a subitement disparu ! Pas si subitement en fait, mais Apolline était trop distraite pour l'écouter alors qu'il voulait lui dire quelque chose de très important !
Personnellement j'aime beaucoup les dessins de Chris Riddell ainsi que son humour, donc je pense que je lirai toujours ses livres avec plaisir. Et c'est aussi avec plaisir que je les partages avec mes jeunes cousins qui aiment les aventures d'Apolline, et aiment aussi colorier ces livres !

This is my favorite so far from the series. I just love the relationship between Mr. Munroe and Apolline. And the sort of road-sea-trip adventure here is simply lovely and dense and makes you giggle and curl your toes in joy. This book makes you feel as wonderous and happy about small things as you felt as a child. I love Appoline and her friends.

Another cut and short read! I read it one sitting in a bookstore.
