Las XII pruebas de Astérix

Julius Caesar proposes the ultimate challenge. Asterix and Obelix accept. Rome has no idea what it's gotten itself into. Exasperated by the resistance of a small Gallic village, Caesar launches an unprecedented challenge: twelve tasks inspired by the Labors of Hercules. If the Gauls complete them all, the Roman Empire is theirs. If they fail even one, they become slaves. Spoiler alert: Caesar has misread his rivals. What this poor man hasn't counted on is that Asterix is ​​more cunning than the entire Senate combined, and that Obelix is ​​hungrier than the entire Roman army. The story unfolds at a breakneck pace, test by test, with humor that blends physical action with sharp satire. One of the tests pits them against a Roman bureaucracy so absurd and labyrinthine that it has been making readers of all ages laugh for decades, and it remains as relevant as ever. Asterix is ​​one of those picture books parents buy "for the kids" but end up reading first. This special 50th-anniversary edition of Goscinny and Uderzo's original animated film includes 16 pages of bonus content, making it the most complete version available. A classic to share with the whole family, from ages 0 to 99, with or without a magic potion.
