The Belgian artist Gabriel Vincent (1928–2000) gained worldwide fame with a series of picture books about the adventures of a kind-hearted bear named Ernest and his "adopted daughter" a little mouse named Celestine. Vincent's tender watercolor drawings are so expressive...
that they almost do not require
words. With light lines and barely noticeable strokes, she manages to convey the slightest shades of emotions – resentment, confusion, embarrassment, sudden delight, and of course, love in all its manifestations. Love that is bigger than life. The collection includes the following stories: "Street Musicians", "Josephine's Room", "Ernest Got Sick", "Christmas", "A Keepsake Photograph". The legendary picture books by Gabriel Vincent inspired the French writer Daniel Pennac to create a script for the animated film, and later his own book "The Story of Ernest and Celestine".
