My third picture book with Alain Verster. Vasco is a pig that loves his owner: the young Matteo. Every day Vasco awaits Matteo, eager to play with him when he comes home from school. But this day Matteo says his father will bring him a gift. A gift called John. Vasco is so, so, so disappointed: will this John replace him? The other animals on the farm think it's outrageous: being replaced like thát. John becomes a monster in Vasco's head, a green monster. Until... A joyful, light story about friendship and jealousy.
Previous books I got to make with Alain Verster: VASCO THE LITTLE SOCCER PIG and THE DOVE THAT COULDN'T DIVE.
