A grumpy old dog has lost his zest for life. But Emma does not give up and, step by step, shows him what makes life worth living. Like Barbara Yelin, the Basel-based illustrator Sabine Rufener also demonstrates that drawings can bring emotions to life. After a reading from ‘Emma and the Sad Dog’, you will experiment with the book’s visual language: you will doodle along outlines, play with colours and explore how blurring can change moods.
