Night Explorers
An ode to imagination, nature, and the passing of time…
In the deap dark forest Gaspar, his rabbit, and Mimi the cat have built a tree house before setting out to explore the world… The world, we soon discover stops at the edge of the garden. Indeed, just beyond their deep dark jungle, is the House and as night falls, its glows reassuringly.
"Through her illustrations, Anne Brouillard presents us with a sumptuous spectacle: that of dusk gradually settling over the garden. (...) A gentle, luminous album celebrating imagination and love, both of which allow us to enjoy adventures in complete confidence." - Milan jeunesse - Coin lectures
