Zucchini isn't a vegetable, he's a brave little boy. He thinks he's alone in the world when he loses his mother. But that's without counting on the encounters he'll make in his new life at the children's home. Simon, Ahmed, Jujube, Alice and Béatrice: they all have their stories, and they're as tough as they are tender. And then there's this girl, Camille. When you're 10, having a gang of friends, falling in love - there's a lot to discover and learn. And why not, even, to be happy?
