It’s a day like any other in the butcher shop run by Marcelin and his dog Andouillette. That is, until some incredible news comes in: all the animals have gone on strike! Refusing to be eaten, they’ve fled their pens and are freely roaming the land, even parading down the streets! The uprising soon leaves everything in utter chaos: curious villagers flocking for a glimpse and eager to join the debate, wolves from deep in the woods readying a doublecross. Soon, the famished animals return to the city to fill their empty bellies. That’s when Marcelin has an ingenious idea. Joining forces, humans and animals can drive back all opportunistic gluttons. Make way for sharing and mutual aid! But careful—Mother Nature hasn’t spoken her last yet! Marie Colet and Françoise Rogier deliver their third work together with Éditions À pas de loups. This picture book of wallpaper cut-outs humorously tackles the matter of our eating habits and our relationship with nature.
