Everyone in the chicken coop is starving. It's become too much, the unhappy moms and dads have gone in search of any overlooked morsels. But now, having been gone for so long, Carmen, Carmelito, Belino the cowardly lamb, in their turn, decide to leave the barnyard. However, all the others around are not feeling very safe. Rumour in the air has it that a feathery monster- the Basilic- is roaming the countryside, terrorizing anyone who approaches.
- Cute, funny, intelligent, moving, and full of puns and ideas about adventure and love!
- A shock duo! Funny and delicate texts written by Christian Jolibois, magnificent illustrations by Christian Heinrich!
The hidden son of a famous Irish fairy and an Italian toad, Christian Jolibois is 352 years old. Teller of stories, lies and whims, when he doesn't write he speaks with pigs, trees, roses and chiken.
Christian Heinrich endlessly scrapes palettes and ruffles paintbrushes.
