Join Elodie Montagne and Victoria May for a special reading and discussion of their picture book Un costume pour minuit, a playful and imaginative story for children aged 4 and above. Presented in French, with a bilingual format, this event offers young readers and families the opportunity to discover the story together while exploring the ideas, characters and creative world behind the book.
Through a lively reading, Elodie and Victoria will bring Un costume pour minuit to life, inviting children to listen, imagine and follow the story as it unfolds. The session will also include a discussion around the book, giving young audiences a chance to discover more about how a picture book is created and how words and images work together to tell a story.
About the book:
“It’s Halloween morning, and Elliot the ghost doesn’t have a costume for tonight’s party. The countdown is on to find the perfect disguise! And when his friends Mona, Belle, and Adam tell him all about their fears, it helps Elliot put his own into words.”
A perfect story for children aged 5-9 (and equally enjoyable for older readers)
Elodie Montagne, a passionate illustrator, infuses each of her creations with gentleness and poetry. Inspired by the hues of autumn, she envelops Un costume pour minuit in an atmosphere that is both warm and magical.
