A strong and endearing novel to question our relationships with the wild world.
- A terrible virus spreads and forces the population to lockdown. Ombeline is bored in the orphanage where she lives in. Thankfully, she can count on four-year-old Leontine and fourteen-year-old Malaurie, who are like sisters to her, to brighten up her day. The only adult who looks after her, Jacinthe, knows her secret: Ombeline can communicate with animals. She does not speak to them: she emits a slight breath, catches their gaze and begins to communicate.
Her life is turned upside down when she finds out that a white tiger has escaped from the zoo. Will she be able to communicate with such an animal?
