“In its beginning it did not know

from where it came,

or where to go…”

A poetic fairy tale about the adventures and feelings of a mischievous little cloud as it floats up from earth and then races through ever changing skies. Twists and turns take the cloud into unexpected directions until it falls back to earth in a splash but is this an end or a new beginning? One thing is for sure it is forevermore a giver of life and beauty.

The inspiration for “The Little Cloud” came as the author lay on his back, high in the Alps gazing at playful white clouds chasing each other in an indigo blue sky. Accompanied by fun, bright and uplifting illustrations, with quirky details to spot, by mixed media artist Emmie van Biervliet. Interwoven into the story are learning and discussion points for little ones including about emotions, weather, the water cycle, colours and female leadership.
