What a joy it is to walk among the ginkgo leaves! Suddenly, Kotori is startled by high-pitched cries coming from the mountain: it's monkeys! Frightened by the shrill noise, they all run off, leaving one baby monkey alone and frightened. How will Kotori help him find his mum?
After a career as an environmental engineer, Alice became a journalist and blogger specialising in Japanese literature. She has lived in Tokyo since 2020 and also works for Sully Editions as a community manager.
Morgane Boullier is an artist-illustrator from Brittany living in Tōkyō, Japan. In early 2016, after a few years in the cartoon industry, she left Paris for Tōkyō, then Tōkyō for Montreal, before settling back in Japan. She recently flew to the United States and plans to return to live in France in 2023.
In addition to her work as a freelance artist, she studies sumi-e (traditional Japanese painting and Zen practice) with two sensei, Japanese masters.
A keen explorer, traveller and poet, her work is inspired by the pretty little things in everyday life, nature, the seasons, and of course... Japan.
mais quelle beauté ce livre - une magnifique collection à commencer avec les illustrations de Morgane Boullier et l'histoire de Alice Monard - C'est frais , l'histoire est toute mignonne, les dessins adorables - la qualité du livre et des feuilles sont parfaits ! Les histoires étant courtes, c'est bien pour les petits et en + je le trouve facilement adaptable aux enfants qui rentrent au CP qui apprennent à lire - Un cadeau que j'ai pris pour ma fille qui habite au JAPON avec son mari (japonais) donc inévitablement intéressant pour eux - et ce sera le cadeau de Noel de mon petit fils qui entre en CP à la rentrée de septembre - Je valide tout à fait cet achat et le recommande
