Alfred is a normal lad who lives in his very normal tomorrow, maybe our tomorrow. A world that has changed much, perhaps without really changing. Looking for social redemption, he accepts a proposal that will take him far from home for a long time. When he comes back, he slowly realizes that things aren't exactly the way he expected them. A surprise that, in spite of all, will urge him to look for answers. Alfred is a normal lad who lives in his very normal tomorrow where technology has made giant strides, even if these strides have been used by the few who have then distributed it to the many like crumbs to the hungry. A society where much has changed, perhaps without really changing. Alfred, like every lad, like every man, like every human being hopes, at least for himself, for a better future and that's what he pursues with tenacity and conviction, devoured by anguish and desire for redemption. When, in this uncertain future, he's offered such a chance, he'll seize it, embracing every single aspect and consequence, such is his desire to believe in it with all of himself. But evry medal, time out of mind, always has two sides, and Alfred will have to decide whether or not to face the side that's hidden from him, embarking on a quest and investigation, fighting against time that he has no more, or to accept things as they are and convince himself that everything is actually normal.

Solution: shrink the whole of humanity. An unknown path that once undertaken cannot be reversed but, although everyone keeps saying yes, are we sure that all the dangers have been taken into consideration? Earth is overpopulated. Human beings are now too many. Years of technological progress across the board have decreed their almost exponential increase decade after decade. Any attempt made to curb growth has been in vain. Expansion into space has not delivered the desired results. Earth is exhausted and humanity on the verge of a near extinction. Thousands of hypotheses are made, thousands of solutions examined, thousands of researches are conducted and subsidized. Nothing is left out. Everything is examined. Even the most abstruse ideas and most imaginative conjectures are studied thoroughly. So, in this mess of ideas, in this swamp of thoughts the solution arises. The solution is as simple as absurd and yet apparently possible: shrinking the whole of humanity. An unknown path that once undertaken cannot be reversed but, although everyone keeps saying yes, are we sure that all the dangers have been taken into consideration?

This is a story about courage, respect, friendship, a fairy tale for young and old that will give a little joy and amazement in its simplicity to all. This is the story of a dragon, or rather a little dragon: the little cloud dragon. A little dragon that loves to jump, but cannot do so on his soft cloud. This is the story of a girl who becomes friends with him. A girl who finds a playmate in the little dragon. This is a story about the beauty of giving and the joy of receiving. This is a story about courage, respect and friendship. A fairy tale for young and old that will give you a little joy and amazement in its simplicity. The perfect story to make your children fall asleep with a smile on their faces and wonder in their eyes (at least to my daughter it always has had this effect).

这是一个关于勇气、尊重、友谊的故事。一个老少皆宜的童话故事，它的简单趣味性会给所有人带来一点快乐和惊喜。 这是一条龙的故事，或者更确切地说，是一条小龙：云中的小龙。 一条喜欢跳跃的小龙，但不能在它柔软的云上跳。 这是一个小女孩和他成为朋友的故事。 一个小女孩和小龙成为了玩伴。 这是一个关于给予之美和接受之喜悦的故事。 这是一个关于勇气、尊重和友谊的故事。 一个老少皆宜的童话故事，它的简单趣味性会给人带来一点欢乐和惊喜。 一个完美的故事，让您的孩子脸上带着微笑入睡，眼中充满惊奇（至少我女儿一直有这种效果）。 Translator: Lisa

Jest to opowieść o odwadze, szacunku i przyjaźni. Jest to bajka dla dzieci i dorosłych, która sprawi wszystkim odrobinę radości i zachwyci swoją prostotą. To jest historia o smoku, a raczej o małym smoku: Małym Smoku Chmurku, który uwielbia skakać, ale nie może tego robić na miękkim obłoku, na którym mieszka. To jest historia o małej dziewczynce, z którą Chmurek się zaprzyjaźnia i o tym, jak ci dwoje stają się kompanami zabaw. To jest opowieść o pięknie dawania i radości z otrzymywania, a także o odwadze, szacunku i przyjaźni. Bajka ta, swoją prostotą zachwyci zarówno dzieci jak i dorosłych oraz sprawi wszystkim odrobinę radości. Jest to idealna zasypianka, dzięki której dzieci usną z uśmiechem na twarzy i zachwytem w oczach (tak przynajmniej działa na moją córkę).

C'est une histoire de courage, de respect, d'amitié, un conte de fées pour petits et grands qui donnera un peu de joie et d'étonnement dans sa simplicité à tous. C'est l'histoire d'un dragon, ou plutôt d'un petit dragon : le petit dragon des nuages. Un dragon qui aime sauter mais ne peut pas le faire sur son nuage tout mou. C'est l'histoire d'une petite fille qui se lie d'amitié avec lui. Une petite fille qui trouve un compagnon de jeu dans le dragon. C'est une histoire sur la beauté de donner et la joie de recevoir. C'est une histoire de courage, de respect et d'amitié. Une fable pour petits et grands qui vous procurera un peu de joie et d'étonnement dans sa simplicité. L'histoire parfaite pour endormir vos enfants un sourire aux lèvres et de l'émerveillement dans les yeux (en tout cas, sur ma fille, l'histoire a toujours fait cet effet).
