Bilingual book
Sweet little toy feeling no more joy, Pierrot still has a wish to fulfil...
​
Like a melancholy tale by Andersen where the inanimate comes to life, delicately dressed in Indian ink and carried by a rhyming text (French and English), Le Vieux Pierrot / Good Old Pierrot tenderly introduces the youngest to mutual aid and friendship.
A perfect nightfall companion, like a suspended moment, carved out of our hectic day.

Paying homage to the toys of yore, with poetry and emotion.
A must read !”
Magali (Librairie Fontaine, Victor Hugo, Paris)

A deeply emotional read.”
