Léonie was born with a strange petticoat... an aviary perhaps? At the age of walking, the petticoat gets heavier. Mum and Dad invent a way to lighten it. Now Léonie can dance, but she is tired of being alone at home. Then Mr. Trapeze's circus arrives in the village, and with him comes a lion who is very anxious because his cage is broken. Together they make a deal... Will Léonie spend her life in a circus? She dreams of other spaces, of other freedom. This book won the Handi-Livres prize for the best children's book in 2009.
