Playtime

by Anne Bertier
Small Round and Big Square are friends and love playing figures and forms together. They learn, while trying to mix their shapes, to build together and discover a game that is both fun and infinite. There is no longer a small and a big one, they need each other to continue. They also discover that friendship requires some generosity. As always in her work, Anne Bertier is particularly careful on the way the images and the white lay down on the page. She explores and renew the relationship between children, signs and their images.

Little Drop's Journey

by Anne Crausaz
This is the story of a small drop of water, blown by the wind and heated by the sun, it becomes vapour, snowflake and dewdrop. It discovers the sea, the mountain and the valleys. It encounters animals and plants until it lands onto Raymond the Snail! A new "natural" story from Anne Crausaz to tell children about the cycle of water. Other titles by the same author at Editions MeMo include the story of a growing seed or the birth of a snail, called Raymond, of course!
