Publisher's Synopsis
This superbly illustrated colouring and activities book for children is inspired by the city of Brussels and its eclectic architecture. When the author, Gwen Guégan lived in Brussels, she drew many facades of houses, sometimes remarkable, sometimes simple. She had fun re-composing the city, grouping the houses regardless of their geographical location but associating them according to her whim. The playful character of Edgar the Fox (an animal appearing more and more in the capital today) serves as a guide and takes the young readers through an atypical and nocturnal walk in the empty city. He encourages them to colour, draw, complete and recognise the most emblematic elements of the city. Learning to look at the city to take ownership of it by being creative is one of the goals of this book. An appendix allows the most curious or their parents to complete their knowledge on the essential architectural elements of the city crossed throughout the story and know their address to see them in real life if they wish.
