Tous les animaux savent qu’il ne faut pas se frotter a l’epouvantail. Pourtant, il reagit de facon surprenante quand un petit corbeau apeure tombe du ciel... L’auteure a succes Beth Ferry et les illustres freres Fan presentent ce recit tendre et chaleureux qui evoque le pouvoir reconfortant de l’amitie et la joie d’aider les autres. Les freres Fan demontrent encore une fois leur extraordinaire maitrise du crayon graphite comme de la peinture, avec une palette epoustouflante et des personnages charmants et pleins de vie.

 

All the animals know not to mess with old Scarecrow. But when a small, scared crow falls from midair, Scarecrow does the strangest thing... Bestselling author Beth Ferry and the widely acclaimed Fan Brothers present this tender and affectionate tale that reminds us of the comforting power of friendship and the joy of helping others. The Fan Brothers once again demonstrate their mastery of illustration with sweeping settings, a breathtaking and beautifully curated colour palette and charming, lifelike characters.
