Marmouset is a charming little girl and the star of the Marmouset series of French-language children's books created as both teaching tools and fun reads.

In La Bouche de Marmouset, or The Mouth of Marmouset, she explains what the mouth is for: Eating her lunch, crunching an apple, talking, singing, whistling, shouting, taunting other kids playing games, calling for her dog, kissing her mother's cheek, brushing her teeth before bed.

Dina Kathelyn Tourneur, a.k.a. Dina-K. Tourneur and Dina Kathelyn, is a Belgian children's book author and illustrator who helped create the French-language Marmouset series for Casterman publishers in the 1970s. She is known for her expressive and colorful style and her ability to create engaging characters and stories.
