Growing Up with the Smurfs 9 #9

Fisher Smurf makes friends with a butterfly – his very best friend. But butterflies live shorter lives than Smurfs. When his friend dies, Fisher Smurf has to learn to deal with grief and find his smile again.

In Smurf Village, 100 blue elves live in harmony with nature. They too sometimes face everyday problems they can't solve on their own – but help is never far away. Each issue of Growing Up with the Smurfs follows a Smurf as he tackles a topic from which children and adults can learn: how to deal with fear and anger, how to eat well, or how to protect the environment. Humorous stories invite readers to discover together – without a wagging finger – rounded out by an informative afterword from child psychologist Diane Drory.
