By Terry Fallis. 2019
Adam Coryell is your average high-school student--well, except for that obsession with fountain pens--when his life changes forever. Based on…
a study by a quirky Swedish professor that claims that every human being, regardless of athletic inclination, has a body that is suited to excel in at least one sport, it turns out that Adam is good--very good, in fact--at golf. Even though he'd never even picked up a golf club. Almost instantly, and with his coach, hard-nosed Bobbie Davenport by his side, Adam and his new-found talent skyrocket to a prodigy-level stardom that includes tournament titles, sponsorship deals, throngs of fans following his every move, and fodder for tabloids. But here's the catch: Adam doesn't really like golf. And as the life he once knew slips away--including the love of his life, the dream of being a writer, and everyday normalcy--he can't help but wonder if all this success and fame is worth it, or if it's enough for him.

Avec Dans ma boîte, son premier album, Jean-Yves Casterman propose un style empreint de nostalgie et de douceur. Ses textures et ses couleurs, aussi chaudes que chaleureuses, se greffent à son histoire comme le ferait un câlin. Cet album est un véritable hommage à l’enfance et aux bras si rassurants des papas.La légende de Paul Thibault

ces morceaux de bâtiments. En compagnie de son frère Peter, elle cherche un endroit où ils pourront recevoir de la nourriture, mais se retrouve plutôt dans une pièce où toutes sortes de livres sont exposés.

Cette dernière leur présente également d'autres récits qui rappellent aux enfants leur propre réalité, comme celui du taureau Ferdinand, qui refuse de suivre les ordres, alors que leur père a été tué pour avoir résisté. Redécouvrant les rêves qui se sont envolés depuis le début de la guerre, Annaliese et Peter songent à contribuer aux efforts de leur ville pour retrouver leur vie d'avant."--[SDMLéonard, le mouton qui ne voulait pas être tricoté
By Mélanie Fortin. 2018
Entassés les uns à côté des autres, la tête penchée pour brouter l'herbe au sol, les moutons du berger ressemblent…
à une véritable couverture de laine, qui comporte cependant un accroc. Une des bêtes, plutôt que de partager le festin de ses congénères, a la tête constamment relevée vers le ciel. Léonard a en effet envie de s'envoler vers des contrées lointaines et de faire des rencontres, l'idée de se voir tondu pour en faire des vêtements de toutes sortes lui donnant des cauchemars. Si tous les autres moutons se moquent de lui et de ses rêves de grandeur, il songe que son souhait est réalisable quand il voit une nuée de montgolfières voler au-dessus du champ. S'entraînant à courir et à monter dans les arbres, il compte bien mettre son plan à exécution, mais le reste du troupeau lui rappelle constamment qu'on n'a jamais vu un mouton dans un ballon.
