Presents English translations of fourteen short, cartoon-style stories, originally published in French, featuring the characters of Asterix and Obelix, friends in ancient Gaul.
Asterix finds an abandoned baby boy outside his hut, and even though he and Obelix have more experience fighting with the Romans, the two Gaulish warriors decide to raise the boy.
One stormy night, a sinister little man arrives in the little Gaulish village, and Prolix says he's a soothsayer and the villagers believe everything he says, but Asterix suspects otherwise.
When the mothers in Asterix and Obelix's little village decide the local bard and schoolteacher is not teaching their children properly, they call in Bravura to take over, even though a female bard is unheard of.
