"La jeunesse de Spirou", written by Tome and drawn by Janry, is the thirtyeighth album of the "Spirou et Fantasio" series, and the sixth of the authors. The stories were serialised in "Spirou", before they were compiled as a hardcover album in 1987. This eventually launched the formal spin-off series "Le Petit Spirou".
