A fascinating book about children’s collections in which Fanny Dreyer confirms her immense talent as an illustrator.

Here, seven children share their collections. Whether quite common, like Bastien’s flowers, or more original, like Omar’s collection of Autumn Things, they are all very important to their owners. Each collection is the result of a heritage, a taste, or a need, and is the source of much joy for the collectors: the pleasure to seek, organize, and take care of their own little treasures. The last chapter takes us to Japan, where contemporary artist Christian Boltanski collects… heartbeats.
