Cléo lives by the water with her parents. Her dream: sailing around the world. Her father gives her a white sheet, and her mom uses her silver scissors to sew her a main sail. On to the oceans, the wind and the mist!

But Cléo grows up and soon, her main sail has become too small for her adventures.

A story filled with nostalgia and tenderness, great joys and little pains, where the readers find themselves starboard-side, sailing on the ocean of imagination; but also portside, along the thin thread of life's transformation.

Jeanne Mour was born in Cambrai, France. Growing up she often heard: "Oh, stop it with these stories of yours!" She didn't stop and now she performs them for children in museums, in forests, in public librairies, at the Pompidou Centre in Paris, carried on by the wind of her imagination and her flute. And now, she is publishing! Happy sailing, Jeanne!
