Stories for laughing

Orbie, dessine-moi un billibouton
(Orbie, Draw Me a Billibeep)

Summary

This is not working at all. Fred has been trying to draw a billibeep for three weeks and ten days. Desperate, he turns to illustrator Orbie for help. But what exactly is a billibeep? A sheep named Billie? As Fred’s explanations get vaguer and vaguer, and he becomes more adamant about seeing his idea come to life, it won’t be easy for Orbie to keep her cool!

A wacky book with an original concept that plays with the idea of the book-as-object… and the illustrator’s nerves.
