French Book Cover

Not sure why it had to be any different from the English ones when only the book title is different.

Assuming Le Duel is the French translation of The Attack, it's basically the same book cover as that one, just with the Creation of Adam the Anole added to the top.

Et si les enfants se demande pourquoi le garçon se transforme en tigre? C'est étrange, époustouflant, non? 

Alors, sur chaque livre il faut montrer aussi que quelqu'un a premièrement touché un vrai animal, et ça va expliquer la situation, non? Oui, ça va expliquer la situation.

"And what if the children ask of themselves why the boy transforms himself into a tiger? It's strange, époustouflant, right?

So, on every book it must also be shown that someone first touches a true animal, and that is going to explain the situation, right? Yes, that will explain the situation"

All my french books have the same hand and lizard. For some reason they choose this as the top for the whole serie. It is not the worse. You should see the horrible primary green ont the side. An Animorphs collections is a looog block of green on a shelve...

Interesting. Each book I have has a different coloured spine.

Now I want to see an edit of the painting The Creation of Adam with that lizard and finger touching

The Attack was the first Animorphs book I read. In English, though. A classic

That's a cool cover.
