The Court Charade by Flore Vesco
4.0
Ridiculously funny and funilly ridiculous.
A young girl goes to court but she does not fit in. Not at all - she's not sophisticated and prim and proper, and she knows how to defend herself in a court bent on sending her away and has a particular way with words. She ends up on all sorts of scrapes that, weirdly, she can always turn in her favour. And we get to see it all of it. What's more, see it in great and funny drawings, although I'd say some are not for kids.
This is an over the top, ridiculous book and I enjoyed it a lot for that.
I opened the book to see how long it was and, when I noticed, I had finished the whole thing!
