Clarice Bean, Smile
With her school project overdue, the irrepressible Clarice ponders big themes, like the delicate balance of life on Earth, the nature of happiness, and how even the smallest person can make a difference. Clarice Bean is thinking about all the endangered things: the BIG creatures, the LITTLE creatures, the plants and the trees. If only she can stop daydreaming, she might come up with a subject for her big school assignment--or is daydreaming part of the creative process? Meanwhile, it''s not just the planet that needs help; there''s her whole family too--like a forgetful granddad who keeps falling and a dad who is literally getting sick from a stressful office merger (whatever that may be). Welcome back to the beloved world of Clarice Bean, whose books have sold more than six million copies worldwide and garnered huge critical acclaim. As always, Lauren Child brings her signature quirky humor and enchanting black-and-white illustrations to this smile-inducing story about honoring your unique gifts--and using them to make things better.

Devine Qui Vient Te Garder Clarice Bean?

release date: Mar 01, 2008
Devine Qui Vient Te Garder Clarice Bean?
Dans une langue qui lui ressemble, c''est-à-dire pétillante, malicieuse et entraînante, Clarice Bean présente son oncle Ted, avec lequel elle s''entend à merveille. Aussi, lorsque sa maman lui annonce qu''il viendra les garder, son jeune frère et elle, la fillette est enchantée! Mais Ted n''a pas le sens de la responsabilité dans le sang et les catastrophes s''enchaînent : le hamster s''enfuit, le frérot est victime d''un accident de soccer, le grand-père un peu folingue "fait une fugue" et pénètre chez la voisine, etc. -- Des illustrations débridées, qui amalgament peintures, collages, montages photographiques et traits de plume vigoureux, servent d''écrin au texte dont les multiples jeux typographiques reflètent l''énergie débordante de l''héroïne. Une ode rafraîchissante à la spontanéité, au franc-parler et à l''imagination enfantins, le tout servi dans un album dont l''esthétique est à mi-chemin entre le "scrapbook" et le journal intime. [SDM].

Dans Quel Pétrin Es-Tu, Clarice Bean

release date: Mar 01, 2008
Dans Quel Pétrin Es-Tu, Clarice Bean
Dans une langue qui lui ressemble, c''est-à-dire pétillante, malicieuse et entraînante, Clarice Bean relate son quotidien et ses relations tumultueuses avec son enseignante (qui est totalement dépassée par la vivacité de son élève!), son égocentrique grande soeur, son frère en pleine crise d''adolescence, un petit frère trop collant, un père obnubilé par son travail, une mère débordée et un grand-père à moitié sourd qui perd un peu la tête. Heureusement, la fillette peut compter sur l''amitié de Betty Belhumeur, qui partage sa passion pour les aventures littéraires de Ruby Redford, une jeune détective à laquelle elle voue une admiration sans bornes et qui est pour elle une véritable source d''inspiration. -- Une série surfant sur une vague à la limite du baroque et du rocambolesque, qui se lit comme une ode rafraîchissante à la spontanéité, au franc-parler et à l''imagination enfantins. Les multiples jeux typographiques, qui reflètent l''énergie débordante de l''héroïne, les illustrations au trait vif et coquin, de même que les extraits des lectures favorites de Clarice confèrent à l''ensemble une esthétique à mi-chemin entre le "scrapbooking" et le journal intime qui ajoute à la saveur de cette galerie de personnages hauts en couleur ... dans laquelle on ne peine toutefois pas à reconnaître ses proches! [SDM].

Charlie fait face à toutes ces situations avec patience. -- La délicieuse relation entre un grand frère bienveillant et une petite soeur ingénue, mise en scène via des personnages tracés au feutre d''une main gentiment maladroite et s''intégrant à des collages fantaisistes, multipliant tissus, textures, photographies, papiers divers, auxquels des jeux typographiques répondent avec autant d''inventivité. [SDM].
