Lovely, "C'est toujours l'amour", which means "It's always love", is an inspiring story for young and young-at-heart readers.
Lovely is a little spoiled and snobbish Chihuahua living in the heart of Paris close to Musée du Louvre. She is sharing a lovely apartment with her owner. Lovely's life is perfect until Josephine decides to move permanently to London for love and work. Lovely is devastated and heartbroken. She is desperately unhappy about the upcoming changes. A new country means a new language and a new culture. On her train drive from Paris to London Lovely's worries vanish unexpectedly. Instead of ending up in London with Josephine and her fiancé, James, the little Chihuahua ends up in a refugee camp in Calais. What happened? Where is Josephine? Will the two ever be reunited?
My Voice for the Voiceless: Anyone can become a refugee! Anyone from any country, level of education and income can become a refugee. This is the message of this educational story for the Lily4Refugees Project. We should never judge people and their life stories. Instead, we should be understanding and compassionate towards innocent people who are forced to leave their homeland for a better life and a hopeful future in dignity. We should never point our fingers at others; instead, we should look at our own actions.
Lovely is also available in German.
