March 31, 2026 Oops…. So sorry!! From Pierre’s Instagram account: Not particularly proud of the stupid mistake we made. I was going to announce the Little André book in Arab today, which is our first Arab product EVER, which is really cool! But we did something really stupid! We all know that the reading following order is the other way around from what we are used to, and we also should have swapped left and right from what we are used to… And we all knew this!! For some reason we ended up with the wrong direction. That means: We are going to shredder a thousand books and that really hurts!! It will be good in the end, but for now we have to wait a little longer. I am so sorry!
