Rikki Et Rouquin [French]

By Ruth Ohi

See below for English description.

Rikki et Rouquin sont bien diff?rents, mais l'amiti? qui les unit triomphe ? tout coup.

Rikki remarque que son ami Rouquin est tr's diff?rent de lui. Rouquin est grand alors que Rikki est petit; Rouquin loge dans un terrier et Rikki vit dans un nid; Rouquin aime la nuit, Rikki, le jour. Rouquin reconna't que son ami et lui ne se ressemblent pas tellement, mais il rappelle doucement ? Rikki que leurs diff?rences ne font pas obstacle ? leur amiti? et qu'ils ont m?me plusieurs points communs.

A big friendship wins over small differences.

When Rikki and Rouquin get together, Rikki can only see their differences. Rikki is small and Rouquin is big; Rikki lives in a nest and Rouquin in a burrow; Rikki likes the day and Rouquin, the night. But as they carry on, Rouquin gently points out that their differences are good, and more than that, they have many things in common too. Even Rikki begins to see that maybe they are not so different after all.

This irresistible story about the adventures of two lovable friends is told through spare text and expressive watercolour illustrations full of energy, humour and warmth. The simple text and joyful art together deliver a heart-warming tale with a subtle but profound message about friendship, acceptance and working together.
