Emma & Capucine, Volume 3

This stylish, full-color bande dessinée is a beautiful coming-of-age story focusing on themes of family, friendship, self-confidence and personal growth through the lens of music and dance.

Emma and Capucine are sisters, best friends, and dancers — working hard toward their dreams! Their summer family trip offers a chance to unwind by the beach, but it’s hard to relax when they have to share the house with two loud-mouthed boys. The start of the school year brings new challenges: separated from her friends, Emma grows closer with a standoffish new classmate, who also happens to be in her hip-hop dance classes. Meanwhile, at the Paris Opera Ballet School, Capucine finds she’s mysteriously lost her form for dance. Will she regain her skills before her strict teacher kicks her out?

Together and apart, the two sisters navigate the ups and downs of growing up while striving to excel in dance.
