Girls can do it too / Boys can do it too!

Illustrations by Isabelle Maroger

A fantastic picture book about equality and freedom! “Soccer isn’t for girls! Dolls aren’t for boys! Boys don’t cry! Girls don’t like to get dirty!” You’ve probably heard these sentences on TV, at home or even at school. They are all wrong impressions, it doesn’t matter if you’re a boy or a girl, you can do anything! A 2-sided picture book with 2 different covers and 2 stories – one from the girls point of view, the other from the boys point of view, to avoid clichés with a light and poetic tone, which invites children to be their true self.

The Hummingbird’s Wisdom Illustrated by Pippa Dyrlaga

Discover the well-known American Indian myth of the hummingbird through this gorgeous picture book made with laser cut pages. This little bird tries to save the forest from a fire taking tiny drops of water in its beak. All the other animals, the anaconda, the monkey and the quetzal make fun of it; but it doesn’t matter as it is doing “its part” and will convince others to help him. A beautiful ecological message: each citizen takes actions and contributes as he can to save the planet.

Il brava l’incendie pour les déverser.

Il brava les flammes, la fumée, le danger.
