Froggy's Bus
About this book
There are 18 rules to follow on this bus, and yet it might just take you on the looniest ride ever!
Come aboard Froggy’s bus! Froggy, the driver, is the queen of wheels, but she’s also very strict: to be allowed to travel on her bus, one must follow some rules, 18 to be exact.
In her defence, it must be said that the passengers are
hardly restful. Vole, hedgehog, grass snake, stag, bear and others: each has its personal position, hanging, stretched out, lying or even spread out. Not to mention the rodents who take the seats for a snack, the squirrels who use the handles as gym apparatus and the lynx who seems to believe he’s on a hunting ground!- This list of fanciful rules is the pretext for a whimsical and cheerful bestiary that will delight children.
- Pierre Alexis’ images, painted over metro maps or timetables, create humorous and graceful scenes.
