Lorsque le Groupe de Recherche et d'Echanges technologiques (GRET) et l'Institut de Recherche pour le Développement (IRD) dépêchent au Vietnam deux dessinateurs et un scénariste de bande dessinée, la mission confiée à ceux-ci est de rendre compte de la vie quotidienne du pays, d'en présenter à leur manière les populations, Les paysages et les coutumes, tout en témoignant des actions spécifiques d'amélioration de la nutrition infantile qui y sont menées. Mission complexe dans les deux cas, tant pour les organismes de développement qui aident à installer des conditions de vie meilleures, que pour les artistes chargés de rapporter informations, images, impressions et réflexions qui attireront l'intérêt du public européen. Parce que l'union fait La force, nos trois auteurs de BD, malins, se sont fondus en un seul personnage, Le bon George, dessinateur-enquêteur un rien nonchalant, vigilant mais plein de bons sentiments, et qui s'est lui-même si bien fondu dans le décor qu'il en serait devenu invisible... En tout cas, depuis son retour du Vietnam, on n'a plus trace de lui, mis à part ce carnet de voyage - c'est bien l'essentiel ! Quant à Kraehn, Jusseaume et Le Tendre, ils se portent à merveille, même si le Vietnam continue d'habiter leur esprit et parfois leur travail. Après Méli-Mélo (Cothias, Le Corre, Loisel) et Madagascar, ma terre oubliée (Giroud, Le Corre, Vicomte), trois nouveaux auteurs de bande dessinée mettent leur talent au service d'une cause humanitaire. Plutôt que de proposer des guides ou des récits de voyage, ces carnets ont l'ambition de témoigner des conditions de réalisation d'un programme d'aide au développement et de brosser le portrait d'un pays, tout en offrant une histoire originale. Ce livre a été réalisé avec le GRET et l'IRD qui développent au Vietnam un programme d'amélioration de la nutrition infantile. Les droits d'auteur de cet ouvrage sont ainsi reversés au programme Fasevie.
