Discreet Nature
A new stunning and elegant die-cut series. The spreads each made of four layers present life hidden in nature for the very young. An incredible finesse!
- The Field Mouse
The harvest mouse appears among stalks of wheat in an apple, on a thistle, in a bramble bush, in its nest...
- The Bird
The crested kinglet bathes in a puddle, hides in the pines, feeds its chicks, looks for insects in the snow...
BY THE SAME ILLUSTRATOR
"Five double-page spreads in a delightful little format that fits snugly in your hand and gives you the feeling that you're so close to the bird that you can almost hear the branches moving, the rattling and the cries of the bird, and that you could stick your nose behind the cut-outs to find out exactly what's going on. Totally cute, totally successful: well done. A superb gift." - Les Sandales d'Empédocle Bookshop
