Bookroo's summary

Arianne, feeling out of place at her grandmother's birthday party, wanders into the garden. Boredom turns to wonder as she embarks on a cosmic journey on a dandelion seed pod, unlocking the vastness of her imagination. What wonders await in this enchanting escape?

From the publisher

A young girl and her family travel from the city to the country to celebrate her grandmother’s birthday. Someone suggests that Arianne, as the only child at the party, might enjoy exploring the garden more than listening to the adults chat. Arianne is unsure what to do in the quiet garden, and she soon lies down out of boredom. But then she spots a pebble…and a grasshopper…and flies away on a dandelion seed pod into the cosmos as she discovers the freedom of her imagination.

“Beautiful, modern illustrations but no real written story. There is some dialogue written in but the story is mostly meant to be made up by a reader.”
