A Timeless Tale for Dreamers of All Ages
In a sun-drenched kasbah on the edge of the Moroccan desert, young MoMo watches geese soar overhead in perfect V-formations and dreams of joining them. While his father insists he keep his feet on the ground, his grandmother believes education will teach him "a thousand things" his family never knew.

With his faithful duck companion by his side, MoMo navigates the challenges of rural poverty, village bullies, and his own boundless imagination in this enchanting story about childhood dreams and the courage to pursue them.

Fans of "The Little Prince," "The Alchemist," and "The Boy, the Mole, the Fox and the Horse" will fall in love with MoMo's unique perspective and the book's poetic storytelling that appeals to both children and adults. Perfect for middle-grade readers seeking adventure stories with depth, while offering adults a touching reminder of childhood's magic and possibility.

This international bestseller combines magical realism with heartwarming family dynamics in a cross-cultural setting that broadens horizons while touching universal themes. The first installment in a four-part series following the stages of a butterfly's metamorphosis (The Egg, The Caterpillar, The Chrysalis, The Butterfly), MoMo's journey is just beginning.
