From one of France's most celebrated children's writers, a book that invents its own universe, graphically and in language, featuring illustrations of incredible detail and wordplay that will stimulate the minds of children and adults alike.
In My Valley, Claude Ponti leads us on a journey through an enchanted world inhabited by "Touims" (tiny, adorable, monkey-like creatures), secret tree dwellings, flying buildings, and sad giants. Clever language and beautifully detailed maps of imaginary landscapes will delight children and adults alike. Ponti himself has said, "My stories are like fairytales, always situated in the marvelous, speaking to the interior life and emotions of children. That way each child can get what they want out of the images- the characters and dreams are their own."
