It is a magical story weaving indigenous mythology such as the Spirit of Lightning and Thunderstorm and the fantasy of Planet Limbo to make the reader wonder whether the animals will help bring the children back to earth before it's too late.
Set in the time of the COVID pandemic, the consequences of human action are a stark reminder that life on this planet can continue without us.
In a city hit by the deadly Virus, only a few elders have survived, as they are the safe-keepers of the Memory of the World. With the help of the Totems, the Spirits of Lightning and Thunder have taken the children to a safe Planet. An old couple, Armita and Herbert, have a dream: bring the children back before they die to entrust them with the Memory of the World. They need the animals' help to intercede with the Great Spirit, but the animals do not trust humans. Armita has to convince them that humans can change and have an essential role on this Planet. Through her determination and kindness, she finds the part of human ART a convincing subject.
The story is a reflection of how as humans we have been given the great gifts of Dreams and Hope and it urges us to consider what legacy we want to leave our children and what kind of ancestors we want to be.
Based on a viral video comes the story of one boy's positive energy and how a sunny outlook can turn everything around.

WHEN MALEFICENT PUT A CROWN ON AURORA'S HEAD, SHE DIDN'T THINK SHE WAS PUTTING HER IN DANGER.
Ruling a kingdom is challenging under any circumstances. But Aurora-queen of Perceforest and queen of the Moors-is reigning under the weight of two crowns. Caught between the prejudices that divide her kingdom and eager to establish lasting peace, Aurora is determined to sign a treaty to unify the humans and the Fair Folk.
But as spiky dark flowers grow fiercely around Perceforest's borders and a stable boy mysteriously disappears, tensions between humans and faeries are at a dangerous high.
It's no help that Aurora hasn't been sleeping. After all, how can she be certain she won't wake a hundred years later? Moreover, she can't be sure whom to trust. Her protective godmother, Maleficent; her sly advisor, Lord Ortolan; her devoted friend, Prince Phillip; and her new admirer, Count Alain, all claim to have her best interests at heart. And it soon becomes apparent that an underhanded plot poses unforeseen danger.
With not only her peace treaty but also the safety of her loved ones at stake, it's up to Aurora to trust in her own heart and save her kingdom.
