Mabel and Merryglow are the best of friends, their days are filled with her laughter, and the nights shine with his light, but Merryglow has always been a wanderer at heart, and the time has come for his next adventure.

With Mabel's only friend gone, she returns to old habits, spending her days sulking. But when Mabel crosses paths with two unexpected new friends, Pip, a spirited little bunny, and Cara, a kindhearted fox with a taste for vegetables, her days are once more filled with the laughter of friends! The outcasts learn to love themselves despite their differences, and teach Mabel to find comfort in their company with Merryglow gone.

When Merryglow returns, will he recognise the once morose and miserable tortoise he called a friend? This joyful story explores the importance of loving yourself and your differences, and to stand on your own two feet even when you feel afraid.

Anne Montel was born in Nantes in 1988. After studying the applied arts in high school, she earned a degree in visual communication at the Ecole Duperré in Paris. She won second prize in the young talents category at the Angouleme Comics Festival, followed by recognition by the BD-Fil festival in Lausanne in the “Artists of Tomorrow” category. From that point on, Montel devoted herself wholly to her craft, working as a graphic designer, illustrator, and comics artist.

Julien Arnal is an illustrator and 2D animator, born in the landscapes of the Central massif between mountains and plains, Julien Arnal spent his childhood exploring the natural expanses and isolated corners of these very ancient mountains which nourished his practice and influenced his graphic universe. Through his illustrations and animations, he tends to pay homage to the poetry of these wild spaces.
