Children’s books
Little extraordinary activity book for children aged 7 and 8 – no more, no less.
This is quite a long title for a small notebook (it measures 17x 22 cms and is spiral-bound).
You will find the best activities created for Magic Words and Magic Drawing (published by Hatier in 2003), along with pages from Mystery Numbers, which was never released.
It bothered me not showing my creations for Magic Numbers, that’s why I created this little activity book that gathers the most interesting ones. It is published by Books on Demand. It has been on sale since November 2005.
It is extraordinary because there is nothing ordinary in it : no sudokus, no crossword puzzles…but lies to uncover, ants to count, drawings to be discovered, fortune teller to meet…
I like words, I enjoy numbers, so once again, I played with them. And I offer these games for kids who just started to learn reading and counting, they were especially created for this age group : 7 and 8-year-olds, no more, no less.

The Sentence-drawer for kids and Magic Words
Les Scriptos (The Sentence-drawers for kids) is a book filled with “sentence-drawing” pages, taken from le Scriptographe (the Sentence-drawer), a device made to translate a word into a graphical trace. In the kids version, all the words translate into a drawing: linking the letters of “boat”, a boat is traced, when you connect the letters of “ghost”, a ghost appears; “Louise lives here” draws a house and “baddie or goodie?” traces a shark.
Pascal Rivier did the cover illustration for the Sentence-drawer for kids. I showed it to publishers and Hatier asked me to develop a workbook about words and letters. I really enjoyed creating it. I really like those Mots Magiques (Magic Words). They were published in 2003. Illustrations are by Stefany Devaux.
