"I am the luckiest rabbit in the world!
I live with my brothers in a wonderful place, a paradise of red grass and a thousand flowers.
All day long we wisely wallow, but when night comes, we little rabbits find our freedom and disappear into our burrows.
But come on, I'll show you around!"
The tale imagined by Marie Sellier, delicately illustrated by Marie Assénat, is inspired by the Lady and the Unicorn tapestry, which is kept in the National Museum of the Middle Ages, at the Hôtel de Cluny in Paris. The young reader is invited to discover the animal and plant motifs of the famous tapestry, which are staged with great flair. They will go from the general shop to the seed store, from the tool room to the kitchens, and even to the flats of the lady and the unicorn, which are nevertheless well hidden! Through this adventure full of visual surprises, we can guess the life and the backstage of the museum which fully mobilise the child's imagination.
