Little Noun and The Secret Signs

Content : At the Louvre Museum, Little Noun, the blue hippopotamus from the banks of the Nile, was getting a bit bored behind his glass case... One day, the guard forgot to close the glass door. What a chance! Little Noun waited until nightfall and made his way through the museum corridors... There was so much to explore! Who was he going to meet?

That night, Little Noun was not the only one wandering around the Egyptian department of the museum. He met Augia, a trough-carrier. The hippo wants to decipher the hieroglyphics. Who better to help him than the crouching scribe? Augia led Little Noun to him, but he had lost his stylus and run out of ink. Little Noun gives him the stem of a flower from his back and the scribe draws the blue from his skin. What a surprise for the museum guard to find the hippo asleep on the scribe's lap the next day!
