Two stories running parallel to each other.
In roman type, the story of two kids going into the woods in search of fairies. They find a sleeping one and put it into a glass jar. As soon as the fairy wakes up, it spreads its wings and flies away once the jar is open. The two kids look into each other’s eyes, kiss and go back home.
The day after, they find a blue butterfly in the jar.
In italics the story of the nymph Calliroe, daughter of Teti, monitors the clouds and decides where to plants seeds to bloom. His lover is the giant Crisaore, of sweet hugs.
Calliroe is the fairy awakened by the kids.
