Asterix & Obelix: God Save Britannia

2012

Asterix crosses the channel to help second-cousin Anticlimax face down Julius Caesar and invading Romans.

Ages 8+Source checked

Why this age? Frequent comic fighting, peril, kidnapping-like danger and intimidating invasion themes are softened by slapstick humor; mild romance and story complexity suit roughly age 8 and up. This is guidance, not a safety guarantee; reading level and family context may differ.
