Beyond the Clouds

Thiago Franco, Bruna Lubambo
From an early age, Nuno saw stories, shapes, and dreams drifting through the clouds. But as time passed, the sky faded from his gaze, replaced by glowing screens and quiet distances. Then, one day, a mysterious girl and an unexpected encounter place a string in his hands — a thread that stretches upward, into the clouds… or perhaps into something far beyond. What might lie at the end of the line?

What

moves

Nuno’s story has already enchanted hundreds of children and educators in Brazil and Portugal through the live storytelling sessions of artist-educator Thiago Franco. While a book may never fully capture the energy of a live performance, this version is sure to surprise even those already familiar with the tale.

Here, the book itself invites readers to engage in unexpected ways, offering a poetic and thoughtful exploration of themes such as imagination, family bonds, screen overuse, and the rediscovery of the world around us.
