by Weichuen You 2002Chichi lost the balloon that had accompanied her during her trip in France. It was given to her by her best friend Miragee as a travel companion. During moments of loneliness, Chichi would think of Miragee as if she were really there for her. Chichi was more anxious and worried than ever when she lost the balloon in a wild chase with the geese in Dijon. She thus started a crazy search all over the country. When she got to the hilltop in Lyon, it was already late at night. A proud-looking yet kind-hearted conductor showed her the map and analyzed to her the possible whereabouts of the balloon.
They never knew that the balloon was smiling at them right in the sky, like the very naughty moon...

this was done in 2002? it is really beautiful. it is a lovely starry night...lovely colors and winding of the houses on the road.
Very lovely!
Yes, this belonged to the same series as the previous illo of "Lost." I know, my past style is rather different. Sometimes I feel nostalgia for it, but I am not capable of doing the same stuff. It's sorta like life isn't it?
this is delightful. i love the style of the buildings and their rooves.
...and this is a sweet story, too.
Adorable words and picture!
Another one of your wonderfully playful narrative illustrations...you have the best stories to go with the best illustrations.
