Ma langue fleurie(My Ink Garden) - Les Éditions Fonfon

Summary

My mother and I share a love of paper and pens. She often says a simple flower can help soothe a hurt or take the sting out of an angry word. So, whenever I make a mistake in pen, I correct it by drawing a flower. I turn my accidents into a beautiful garden.

An uplifting story about how everyone makes mistakes—and the sheer joy felt in a colourful stationery aisle!
