We all know the rhyme "Marabout... bout d'ficelle... "which has lulled our childhood. Here it is revisited, enriched and transposed into the colourful world of the circus. Jugglers, stagehands, animals and clowns illustrate in their own way the various expressions of the song. The authors manage to create a real story, that of a day at the circus, from expressions more heterogeneous than the others. The multitude of details and the dynamism of the images arouse the curiosity of children, who enrich their vocabulary with great pleasure. The concept is supported by the plastic quality of the dry pastel illustrations by ZAD, who interprets this zany song with a lot of pertinence.

The story unfolds over the course of a day, featuring the daily life of Lou, a baby who is well cared for by very caring parents. The word "Encore" comes up as a leitmotif, like a ritornello, according to the desires of this baby who never gets tired of playing, eating or receiving kisses, over and over again.A very cute album about the rituals of the day! On your marks... hustle and bustle!
