Cast Away on the Letter A: A Philemon Adventure

(3) 4-6 Toon Graphic series. When Philemon falls into the well on his family's farm he resurfaces on a mysterious A-shaped island in the Atlantic Ocean. After exploring the island full of Wonderland-like absurdities, Phil returns home with a tale his father doesn't believe. References to folklore, mythologies, and Robinson Crusoe (explained in back matter) abound in this richly colored, oddball graphic novel first published in France in 1972.
