A mother is like a nest, a mother is like a car, a mother is like a fountain… This sequence of little phrases describes each step of a baby’s daily life, like a nursery rhyme. As the pages go by, the child grows up and begins to learn.
The reader follows the child through each of these steps. The mother, who was initially a nest and a refuge, transforms into a road, a story or a show for the child. As the child grows, the distance between him and his mother grows, right up until the final page depicting the child’s first steps. But a mother is never that far from her child: she's like a home that you carry inside you forever.
