"... until the day the world gave up. It disappeared like that, from one moment to the next. To people's astonishment, there were no more plants, animals, oceans and continents..." Portuguese author and illustrator Catarina Sobral signs here a brilliant contemporary tale, surreal and disturbing, on the theme of sustainable development. The world is leaving us: and we humans have to find solutions! With a lot of (black?) humour, we are shown what the reactions of politicians, physicists, ecologists, cooks and the whole astonished population would be, up to the "best footballer in the world" who asks himself, for lack of people: "... I am the best footballer of what?" You might as well go to a shrink...!

Inspired freely by Saint-Exupéry, this story relates a meeting between man and animal. Antoine the aviator bursts into the wild world of the fox during an accident in the forest. Thanks to the man's patience and his respect for the animal, a bond is established. And even if, without meaning to, Antoine takes the fox in his flying machine to discover the world of men, there will be no problem. Why? Because there is trust. Because there is trust. In spite of the violent climate that hangs over life on the airfield (Antoine is a war pilot), the animal does not give up his dreams, and when his friend does not return from his last flight, he does not lose hope of finding him. Anna Forlati's illustrations bring to Luca Tortolini's text the harmony of line and colour to depict a world where all that is missing is the strength of the heart, that is to say courage and confidence, to make it a true paradise.

Sometimes she runs away, to Grandma's house or to the plain, on her blue bicycle. But tonight, it's raining and it's dark.... So she closes her eyes, presses her hands very hard over her ears and escapes, far, very far from here, where her life is beautiful, where her life will be beautiful...This album was part of the Opalivres 2020 selection and is supported by the Ministry for Women's Rights.
