The book I chose was Tales of the Inner City by Shaun Tan Tales from the Inner City by Shaun Tan | Goodreads

I really recommend this collection of short stories about animals in the city that is beautiful, humorous and thought-provoking. It changes the way you look at the world. On Friday 15^th September there will be readings from the book interspersed with music at 17h in the library of Koekelberg https://koekelberg.bibliotheek.be/ so hope to see some of you there!
