The gnu and the badger — It’s raining

This is the second book of the gnu & badger duo – a story of friendship, of companionship, of an openness to the unexpected, with which to invent a game in which the rules are made up as you go along. Playing with imagination, making impromptu stories.

Imagination, narration and a curiosity to listen – they all have a place here. It’s a place which is both playful and a source of unexpected and perhaps even impossible possibilities, opening a door onto the absurd.

Just like in the first book, we are charmed by the simplicity and humour of Pessoa’s text. (…) Even in the rain, this is a book which can be turned upside down so that we can read the story backwards. And what a story!

This small, hardback book offers us two different stories, one for going forwards and one for going back, challenging young readers to create new stories based on the cards dealt at the end of the book – you might even want to cut out images from newspapers and magazines to add to the collection of characters and backdrops within.
