With a painted smile, he bounds your way, a whimsical Pierrot, brightening the day. You always know when he’s there by bells twinkling in the air, each ring a promise of mirth and play.

“Ah, sweet friend, have you come to see?” Étienne cries with a flourish, arms open wide with glee. “In this world of wonder, let’s share a dream, where joy reigns supreme and laughter’s the theme.” His voice, a sonnet of cheer, captures your heart, filling it with warmth near.
