Olive spends much of her days in the elaborate dream world that she
has created, escaping the tedium of her boarding school. It is her
private space where no one can bother her. Until one day when an
astronaut named Lenny appears, crashing into the water in his space
capsule. Olive’s surprise deepens when she realizes that Lenny exists
in real life, and a desperate search is underway to locate him
following a failed reentry. With the help of her new friend Charlie,
Olive will have to sift through the clues quickly in order to find
Lenny and save his life. And when the girls decide to spend Christmas
at Olive’s house, they find a key to the mysteries of her dream world
in the most unexpected of places: right at home.

About the author
Vero Cazot
Not very keen on oral expression, French writer Véronique (Vero) Cazot had to learn very early on to use a pen, then a keyboard, to write all kinds of things: love letters, letters of motivation, trailers for television, sketches for a one-woman show, and screenplays of movies and series... She then expanded into scriptwriting for comics as well. Author of the humorous two-part series "Et toi, quand est-ce que tu t'y mets?," she continued her journey with two graphic novels: "Les petites distances" and "Betty Boob," which won numerous awards including the FNAC BD prize in 2018 and a selection at the Eisner Awards in 2019. She was brought on by Dupuis in 2020 to give life to the series "Olive" (Europe Comics in English), illustrated by Lucy Mazel.
