Kids from secular school or yeshivas are the same: just kids (en aparté: read the book 'Just Kids' by Patti Smith).
The drawings by Sempé are amazing.
There are not really girls in these stories of Le Petit Nicolas, because it was the time where the French schools were like the yeshivas: boys were separated from girls. But girls were invited to birthday parties and of course girls ended to cry because one boy pulled her bunches… Girls were ball-busters. That's true: boys are adorable, not selfish… everyone knows that. :-)
Enjoy this book and don't pull my bunches because i will bite you! :-)
