Back Menhir: "A baby boy is left in a basket outside Asterix’s hut - who can have
dumped the foundling there, and why? Childcare is something new to the Gaulish
warriors, but Asterix and Obelix do their best, although they have had more
practice in thumping Romans. Childcare is also new to Crismus Cactus, Prefect of
Gaul, who finds himself masquerading as a Gaulish nursemaid. Why are the Romans
after the baby - and the just what plot is the treacherous Brutus hatching against
Julius Caesar? As usual, it’s up to Asterix and Obelix, to find out … and to save
the day . . .
