Better than Storms and Tempests

Content : ”Mommy Cloud, Daddy Cloud and I lived happily in a sky often blue.
We loved to play hide and seek together behind the hill.
Then, Mommy and Daddy got into the habit of arguing.
More and more often, stronger and stronger.”

Beautifully illustrated by Cynthia Thiéry, the book plays with the skies and the seasons to evoke the feelings of a child who sees his parents separated. “Is it my fault? ", he asks himself.
The child will go through “storms and tempests”, before finding, little by little, joy between his two homes.

Chloé Lefèvre and Anaïs Debanne have a common path geared towards children and teenagers, one as clinical psychologist, and the other as a school teacher and children's author. This book is their first work with four hands, result of their meetings with the children, in the office and at school.

Cynthia Thiéry illustrates picture books and novels for children for big French publishing houses such as Didier Jeunesse, Fleurus, Milan, etc. She is also the illustrator of the non-fiction title 40 Challenges to Take Care of the Planet with PERA publishing.
