Clotaire Dresses Up
Janik Coat

Meet Clotaire, the undisputed king of dressing up!

Clotaire is an unidentified character who has an extraordinary talent to put himself in other people’s shoes. Drawing on the collective, popular and intergenerational heritage, he dresses up as a succession of characters and explores a variety of worlds: tales with Little Red Riding Hood, cinema with The Tramp, music with Michael Jackson, painting with Pablo Picasso, comics with Spider-Man, history with Marie-Antoinette… Sometimes he even has fun pretending he’s the Daft Punk, Harry Potter or Greta Thunberg, for the enjoyment of young and old alike! 

This new, enriched edition of a classic of humour is also a recreational book with 14 spreads of games and drawing pages.
