"Volcano Boy" is an animated book written by Mathias Malzieu, on an original soundtrack by the pop rock group Dionysos.

One touch and Frédéric Perrin's visual world comes to life. An innovative reading system reveals interactive animated pictures that, along with the music, underscore the words and make the story fly.
