Come and discover the work of Emilie Vanvolsem, an illustrator with éditions du Ricochet

Animal droppings are funny! Even more so when you discover everything there is to know about them! Pétoulettes, moquettes, fumées, cigares, pelotes… these are just some of the surprising names given to animal waste. All animals relieve themselves, but each has its own technique: some do it standing up as soon as the need arises, while others prefer to wait for the right moment and the right place. This world, as amusing as it is fascinating, has been brought to life in illustrations by Émilie Vanvolsem, an illustrator with Éditions du Ricochet. As part of the network's highlight event "Manger et être mangé" (To Eat and Be Eaten), the library invites you to discover her work through a small exhibition. Come and explore the surprising world of animal droppings and what they teach us about living things!
