My name is Billy of the clouds

Welcome to this adventure story that invites wonder! As a young boy, Billy is destined to become a cowboy. One morning, he decides to put down his colt and lasso and set off to explore the vast world. Pampa, chaos, sinkhole, blue hole, fjord, peat bog, taiga, mangrove... The landscapes crossed follow one another. Billy is amazed, marveled and learns to know himself at the same time as he discovers each of these new environments. 3 Books in one and 3 ways to tell the journey: 1. The Adventure Story In this first part, the author tells us the story that Billy himself told her. His journey through these grandiose landscapes is magnificently illustrated by 36 double-page spreads in shimmering colors and captioned maps, like in an atlas. 2. Travel Notes The author opens Billy’s Travel Journal to us, somewhere between a diary and a survival manual. Or find, day after day, Billy's observations, thoughts, memories and watercolor sketches. This is an opportunity to learn everything he has packed in his backpack, to discover the recipes for the meals he prepares and the fishing rod he makes, to marvel at his drawings of feathers or stones... 3. The Album of Wonders Album of images collected and captioned by Billy himself, once his journey is over, this third part, documentary, is the place of knowledge of the flora, fauna, minerals and other riches of the world. «A little marvel” - Mathilde, Librairie L’Atelier “A beautiful, intelligent and sensitive album. Well done !» -Christelle – Les Passeurs de mots bookstore “Sublime!» Frédérique – Librairie Tournez la page “An ode to discovery and contemplation, particularly touching and inspiring” Elsa – Librairie Millepages
