Project
My project is a reinterpretation of the children's book *Le Buveur d’Encre* (The Ink Drinker) by Éric Sanvoisin. It takes the form of an A5-sized illustrated book of around forty pages, in which the reader rediscovers the story of Odilon, a little boy fascinated by a mysterious customer whose behavior is strange, to say the least.
Synopsis
While helping his father at the bookstore this afternoon, Odilon spots a peculiar, stunned-looking customer behaving very strangely. It looks like he is floating ten centimeters off the ground, like a ghost. Suddenly, he grabs a book and starts drinking it through a straw! When the customer leaves the shop, Odilon decides to follow him...
