The early years of Bambi, a young deer, and the trials he must face in the forest. A coming-of-age story in nature, a hymn that invites us to feel the magic, beauty, and dangers of wild life.

The modern illustrations by Benjamin Lacombe beautifully highlight the classic text by Felix Salten. Alternating between sketches, charcoal, and colorful paintings, moving between fleeting artistic atmosphere and delicate obsession, it immerses us in the life of the forest, filled with the rustle of experiences and the whispers of conflicting emotions.

A book with a "lace" cover and a surprise journey through the trees of the forest. The name Bambi is associated in our imagination with idyllic scenes flooded with a delightful sense of innocence, combined with Walt Disney's famous film.

In reality, the animated film offers only a visual variation – compared to a literary adaptation – of a novel that remains largely unknown: Felix Salten's masterpiece, the flagship of Austrian literature, originally titled Bambi: Eine Lebensgeschichte aus dem Walde (Bambi: A Life Story in the Forest).
