What am I Reading and why should that be what you are reading!

I am reading a comic book called Tintin. But don’t be fooled it is a very difficult read full of different words and is sometimes hard to follow. Tintin was made from the 1920’s to the 1970’s though 15 of the 23 books published were made in the 1940’s and 1950’s. These were originally made in Belgium in French about 50 years ago they were translated into British English. These are not popular in the United States but are popular in Western Europe, Asia and Africa. Tintin the main character is present in all the books but he is joined by 2 other people later in the series. The books follow two styles in the earlier ones a mystery happens and he solves it but in the later ones he is just relaxing and a problem occurs for him to solve. In this he goes around the world: Russia, The Congo, China, Egypt, Ireland, Eastern Europe, Brazil, England, Belgium, Morocco, Saudi Arabia, Tibet, Peru and Australia they even go to the moon (which is actually scientifically accurate when 1/5 of the population thought that the moon was a big ball of cheese) In these there are a lot of jokes and you learn about countries around the world. If you like comics, mysteries, and learning about the world this is a good book.
