Beskrivelse
For 8 - 12 years.
When Magali decided to find cheese, she couldn't have imagined her search would lead to something so crazy, so nuts, and so bonkers!
All because of cheese...
Magali and Mishka go on a cheese hunt when they stumble upon a farm where animals go paragliding at night. It's too crazy. Donkeys, pigs, goats, and ducks throw themselves off the side of the mountain and fly. It looks like serious fun!
Henri Le Hare helps Magali and Mishka come up with a plan to get parachutes from the main donkey in the farm, but the donkey refuses to help.
Parachutes aren't the only problem. How is Magali going to practise on the beginner slope when she's not allowed out after dinner?
Dude, this marmot is stubborn, stubborn, stubborn. She's going to find a way!

Question for the Author
How did you come up with the character of Magali?
'You know, I really love the French Alps, and looking at all the animals that live in the mountains. I'm Australian, so I had never seen a marmot before moving to France. I worked one summer, for a kids summer camp, and part of my job was to take the children out on walks. We would go looking for marmots, all of us being very quiet, secretly sneaking up to the holes in the ground, where the entrances to the marmot burrows were. Of course, we would make too much noise and the marmots would disappear into their underground tunnels, but sometimes we were lucky and able to take photos. I think their underground homes took over my imagination, and before you knew it, I had a whole chapter book in my head, with Magali as the principal character!'
