Le roi avait tout. Quand je dis tout, c''est vraiment tout, car c''était un grand collectionneur. Il ne lui manquait presque rien.

Un grand album surréaliste, en forme d''ode à la nature mais surtout à l''imaginaire. Plongez dans cet imagier d''arbres rêvés, avec chacun ses caractéristiques bien à lui, et tous plus ravissants les uns que les autres... [payot.ch].

La 4e de couverture indique : « Je ne veux plus être un écureuil. Plus jamais ! D''ailleurs, personne ne rêve de devenir un écureuil. Si on m''avait demandé mon avis, j''aurais choisi autre chose. »

Can a squirrel ever get what a squirrel wants most? The squirrel loves a particular tree (“MY tree”) and is happiest sitting in its shade eating pinecones (“MY pinecones”). But then the squirrel starts worrying. What if someone else wants to claim this tree, to call it THEIRs? So, the squirrel builds a massive wall around the tree. One that no one can get over. Perfect! Only, now the squirrel can’t see what’s beyond the wall. There may be a better tree out there, full of pinecones. Maybe even a whole forest of better trees … Believe every squirrel ever: the never-ending quest for MINE is sure to drive you nuts!

This is the classic story of a boy and his best friend but with a twist! Told from the perspective of the dog, this book is a hilarious, touching and fresh take on the relationship between a boy and his dog, or in this case, a dog and his boy. He had always wanted one ever since he was little... He might not be the one he would have picked himself. He has some strange habits, eats weird food and disappears for hours of the day. But he is perfect really, in his own way. This beautifully illustrated tale tells the story of a dog and his boy, charting their friendhsip in charming rhyming couplets as they navigate the world together. Written and illustrated by the wonderfully talented Olivier Tallec, this is book would make the perfect story for a child with a furry best friend.

The hilarious follow-up title to How Rude! which introduced us to the wonderful duo, Dot and Duck. They''re back to share even more giggles in this sweet story about sharing, manners, and friendship. One day Dot and Duck find a stick, only Dot thinks it''s a sword and Duck thinks it''s a flag. When Dot refuses to share the new toy, she goes to any lengths to make sure Duck doesn''t try to take it. How will Duck react to such selfish behavior? Simple, funny, and ultimately touching, this book will appeal to any child who is learning what it means to share and, more importantly, what it is to be a true friend.
