Barbapapa loves you ;)

Barbapapa is waiting to welcome you.

Just trying out my new studio (Barbapapa almost melted in the double 500w lights).

 

Barbapapa is both the title character, and name of the "species" of said character, of a series of children's books written in the 1970s by Annette Tison and Talus Taylor.Barbapapa himself is a generally pear-shaped, pink shapeshifting blob-like creature who stumbles upon the human world and tries to fit in.

 

The shapeshifting is usually accompanied by the saying "Clickety Click—Barba Trick" (in the French version "Hup Hup Hup, Barbatruc", in Turkish version "Değiş Tonton" means "Transform Barba!" in english, and "Resta di stucco, e' un barbatrucco" in the Italian version). After various amusing adventures, he comes across a female of his species (more shapely, and black-coloured), named Barbamama. They produce seven children, known as the Barbababies, each a different colour.
