Publisher's Synopsis

See below for English description.

Ce livre, c'est l'histoire de Carré. Tous les jours, Carré choisit un bloc de pierre dans sa grotte souterraine et le pousse jusqu'à la surface. Ce livre, c'est également l'histoire de Cercle, l'amie de Carré. Cercle est convaincue que son ami est un véritable génie de la sculpture, mais... l'est-il vraiment? Mac Barnett et Jon Klassen poussent les lecteurs à adopter un point de vue original. Cet album cocasse, au style épuré et minimaliste, met l'accent sur l'importance de garder l'esprit ouvert et de se laisser surprendre par l'inattendu.

This book is about Carré. Carré spends every day taking blocks from a pile below the ground to a pile above the ground. This book is also about Carré's friend Cercle. Cercle thinks Carré is an artistic genius. But is he really? Mac Barnett and Jon Klassen nudge readers toward a more wellrounded way of looking at things. Understated and striking this funny, thoughtful book emphasizes the importance of keeping your eyes -- and your mind -- open to wonder where others see only rubble and rocks.
