et l’illustrateur ont rédigé ou contribué aux descriptions des images, qui sont incluses dans le corps et la narration du texte. Florent, un garçon de dix ans, surprend une conversation entre ses mamans : devant l'état de la planète, elles se demandent si elles veulent avoir un deuxième enfant. À travers une série de mots impossibles à comprendre, il retient l’hésitation dans leurs voix, la peur dans leurs yeux, la main que l’une pose sur le ventre de l’autre, comme quand il n’arrive plus à s’endormir.
