Gaspard and Lisa, best friends, are stuck inside Lisa’s grandmother’s house one rainy afternoon with nothing to do. They try to bake a cake, until Grandma sees the mess they’ve made in the kitchen. Then, they start a game of tennis in the dining room, but Dad doesn’t like that idea at all. Turning the bedroom into a haunted house is not a big hit with Mom. Finally, Gaspard and Lisa decide to put a puzzle together. Hopefully, Grandma won’t mind if they cut up her rabbit-and-pheasant poster and put it back together again. . . .
A husband-and-wife team, Anne Gutman and Georg Hallensleben first created the Misadventures of Gaspard and Lisa series in 1999. Anne, the designer and writer of the series, is a children’s book designer. Georg, the illustrator and writer, was a painter before becoming a full-time children’s
book illustrator.
