The Amazing Remarkable Monsieur Leotard

Etienne, nephew of Jules Leotard, “The Man on the Flying Trapeze,” inherits his uncle’s blank book and false mustache and creates a new life for himself built on his uncle’s reputation. The story is organized into episodes, each a collage of images and text, imaginatively composed to tell the story. Captivating images fill pages, sidebars, and panel sequences. A spread of sheet music for the song “The Man on the Flying Trapeze” serves as the background for images of Leotard performing his acrobatic act across the page.
