Following an artist residency, Anaïs Groisy created a magical tale for us this Christmas. An illustrated story to take you on a journey into a dreamlike universe to rediscover the adventures of Mahaut de Béthune, as a child, going from room to room in the castle. A great dive into the magic of Christmas!

t's hard to fall asleep on Christmas Eve! On vacation at Pépé's, 2 children stay up hoping to meet Santa Claus when he comes to drop off the presents.... They discover by chance Pépé's logbook dating from 1956. The two children open it and then discover how their grandfather, at the age of 9, helped Santa Claus get stuck with his sleigh in a crevasse in the White Land of Christmas. (thus not being able to make his rounds). Will the tour take place? A wonderful adventure to make the magic of Christmas shine in everyone's eyes!
