Sam & Julia-inspired storybooks are being released in France, where new episodes are also airing on France 5 and Okoo.
The first four storybooks based on the animated series by Larousse are hitting bookstores in France. Gallimard will relaunch the classic first book, Sam & Julia, which first launched in 2012, with a new look and feel.
Sam & Julia episodes are airing on France 5 and Okoo, broadcasting three episodes daily at 8:45 a.m., Monday through Friday.
Carine Girac Marinier, director of the dictionaries, encyclopedia and extracurricular department at Larousse, said: “The Larousse editions are delighted to publish beautiful albums featuring Sam and Julia, the heroes of the popular animated series aired on Okoo. Through this engaging and caring universe, young children aged 3 to 6 will joyfully and playfully discover the concepts of sharing, welcoming and living together.”
Léon-Gilbert Hus, producer, said: “After bringing Sam & Julia to life on screen, seeing the very first books inspired by the animated series reach readers worldwide is incredibly rewarding. It’s a joy to witness these beloved mice continue their adventures both on screen and in print, capturing hearts everywhere.”
