Tintin and Snowy

A world famous character

who needs no introduction.Yes its him the heart thorbe of a lot of people in this world and he is TINTIN. Tintin and his pet Snowy, are one of the oldest detective series. The Herge's adventures of Tintin is a well known book to all. If u don't kno i will introduce u to him.

Tintin is a young boy,who works as a reporter. He spends most of his time sloving many adventures. He is not a Detective yet solves all problems.He has a pet who accompanies and helps him in all his adventures and thats the good old Snowy,a white fluffy puppy. He has friends called Captain Haddock and Professor Calculus , and there are two real detectives called Thomson and Thompson.

The adventures of Tintin and Snowy series consists of 24 books in it. The first book is the Tintin in the world of Incas. It is a limited edition book. The rest are available all around the world. Tintin met Captain Haddock for the first time in the book 'The Black Island' . Captain haddock realised that he has a lot of ancestral property and becomes rich in the book 'Red Rackham's Treasure' and 'The Secret of the unicorn',the two series books. Another continous series book are 'The Seven crystal balls' and 'Prisoners of the son'. Tintin's another wonderful yet not totally good continuous series is 'Destination Moon' and 'Explorers of Moon'. In this Tintin and gang goes to Moon. In one of his series 'The blue lotus' Tintin is helped by a young boy Chang. Tintin even goes to help Chang from the Plane crash in his book'Tintin in tibet' . This is the only series book where Tintin Visits India.The book has even some Hindi words in it. Another wonderfull character in Tintin is Castafiore Binaca, a Opera singer, who also helps Tintin in his book' Calculus affair' who is helped by Tintin in return in his book 'The Castafiore Emerald'. The funny part comes when Either Thompson and Thomson arrives in the book or when u see Castafiore in Love with Captain Haddock.

In these 24 books of Tintin, all parts of the world and all types of people are being illustrated. The Inca culture to Arabian culture all are there in it. The most recent issue is the way the book in the series called 'Tintin in Congo' shows Color Discreed rationalisation. So in England now these books are covered with a Red Label saying thats this book shows the difference b/w white and blacks,as blacks are treated as fools. In England there is a store which sells only Tintin books.

I have read all the series of 24 books 10 times by now. Still i don't own a single copy as its too costly. Everytime u read it, the story looks new to u,and thats a wonder to me still now. These books are so old that even my grandmother has read it. This picture is the world famous picture of Adventures of Tintin series.

Many fictionand detective books comes and goes in this world but still i say Tintin and Snowy are the best. You should read all the books and u will surely Love it. Hats off to the author Herge
