In a forest, a small, enthusiastic creature finds itself alone, without understanding why. It therefore turns to the village sage, who helps people find answers using their special glasses, capable of showing the world in a new light. That’s how the protagonist discovers that every individual has a bubble that can morph, burst, if violently invaded, but also merge with those of others, if the desire is mutual.
Born from the desire to create a story that stands out from other picture books on consent — which are often didactic — this tale offers an alternative approach to the subject. By emphasizing the importance of asking for permission, observing cues, and respecting others, the story is intended for children from three years old.
The book alternates between colorful pages, created using gouache, colored pencils, and collage, and simpler line-drawn illustrations.
