A picture book lion in the christmas tree

"Wow, Duvel, there is a tree growing in your livingroom! There I can build myself a nest, can I?" "You can try. It will not be here for long though. That's a christmas tree, Little Bird.

Come and play on my beach

"Yeah, there we are. Come and play on my beach! Lets dig ourselves a nice hole! I love digging. Feel the sand flying. Whooopy! Come on Big Bird, do something." "Why should I do something?

Come and play with my sticks

"Let me show you my stick-collection. Quite impressive, huh? I carried them home from my walks. I am mighty proud of them. Some are thick, others long. The soft ones are great.

Duvel & The 3irds inspect the office

"Now what is this Duvel? I see all kinds of animals, they look real, but they don't move?!" "Don't ask me. The boss seems to look at them all the time. But how am I supposed to know? She never tells me, so I nap while she rattles on that thing. Heee guys, behave, she gets really cross when I mess with her things!
