With very little text, this book lets the illustrations tell the charming story of a child carried away into a world much bigger than herself.
A young girl and her family travel from the city to the country to celebrate her grandmother's birthday. Someone suggests that Arianne, as the only child at the party, might enjoy exploring the garden more than listening to the adults chat. Arianne is unsure what to do in the quiet garden, and she soon lies down out of boredom. But then she spots a pebble...and a grasshopper...and flies away on a dandelion seed pod into the cosmos as she discovers the freedom of her imagination.
“This book is perfectly delightful.”
“A fantastical trip of the imagination…Gorgeous art, almost abstract, with deep watery colors, takes the reader on a completely unique journey.”
★ “Subtle, yet powerful artwork…Readers accompanying Arianne on her odyssey will find themselves entranced.”
