The endless forest.

At the edge of a forest, there is a country where many species of birds live in harmony. Most are migratory birds: thanks to their travels, they exchange a thousand things with the rest of the world. But little by little, migrations became rarer, the birds traveled less, until they no longer left their country. What's the point of traveling when we have everything we need right there? Everything is frozen. The birds have become sedentary. Among them, the geese have gorged themselves, they have grown fat to the point of losing their feathers.

Loison, a young goose, has no desire to become like them! Pia, her magpie friend, shrugs: "It's not so bad, everyone seems happy." But Loison has heard the stories of exploration and migration, and she too wants to discover the lands her grandmother and her friends tell her about, who regret no longer being able to fly. She has a hunch that the answer lies in the infinite forest, the forest where no one should go and from which no one ever returns!

The two protagonists, in search of answers about the sedentary lifestyle that is so sclerotic in their world, thus begin an initiatory journey that plunges the reader into the phantasmagorical universe of the painter Gérard Garouste.

As the story unfolds, they meet colorful characters who will carry with them the hope of travel and renewed bonds.
