Book - Le pire livre du monde (Élise Gravel)
By Elise Gravel, illustrated by Elise Gravel
Elise Gravel wants to write a totally boring book. Her characters, on the other hand, want to go wild... Who will win?
Make no mistake, the title is not a metaphor: this really is the world's worst book. Governor General's Literary Award-winning author-illustrator Elise Gravel takes readers on an unexpected journey through the most ridiculous book ever!
The characters in the story are quickly annoyed by the author's lack of imagination... So they rebel against her figures of speech that lack bite and her bad choices by hurling insults at her in order to get her attention and guide the story in a more interesting direction. They have nothing to lose since they are stuck in the book for eternity anyway.
As the true nature of the characters takes over from their boring author-designed traits, this story turns into a unique tale! With Elise's quirky creatures at the helm of this book, absolutely ANYTHING can happen.
