When one act of kindness triggers another, anything is possible! A young woman is desperately looking for her dog around her home. When she offers an apple to a stranger, her gesture inspires a passer-by who, in turn, performs a generous act, and so on. A wave of good deeds sweeps through the neighborhood, creating bonds between people.
This wordless picture book takes the reader on a stroll through a lively neighborhood. The playlets feature a variety of mutual aid situations and a motley gallery of characters. The story of the lost dog adds a thread to the whole, bringing the story to an emotional close. With Chaque petit geste, Marta Bartolj invites each and every one of us to make the world a better place!
