At first glance, Paul-Émile Dumoulin seems like just a regular librarian. He is serious, proud and very orderly. Every book is in its place on his impeccable shelves.

The only problem? As soon as Paul-Émile gets his nose in a book, reality disappears, giving way to the slightly crazy worlds he discovers between the pages.

On his adventures, the very sensible librarian metamorphosizes. He suddenly turns into a bunch of strange and silly characters who perform acrobatics, balancing, juggling, breakdancing, and beatboxing. Just how far will reading take him?
