Imagine three siblings, Siméon, Morgane, and Venise, suddenly alone after their parents pass away. Scared and determined to stay together, they face the daunting task of finding a new home. This is the start of "Oh, boy!" by Marie-Aude Murail, a story filled with laughter, tears, and unexpected twists!

Here's a sneak peek:

• • Meet the Mismatched Morlevents:
    • • Siméon, the 14-year-old genius, is super smart but a bit shy. Think a young Einstein with a backpack.
    • • Morgane, the 8-year-old firecracker, is full of energy and sass. Imagine a mini Hermione Granger with a mischievous streak.
    • • Venise, the 5-year-old charmer, melts hearts with her adorable smile and imaginative play. Picture a real-life Elsa from Frozen, minus the magic (but maybe with a talking stuffed animal).

• • The Quest for a New Family: The siblings are placed in a temporary home, but they dream of finding a permanent family who loves them all. This journey takes them on wild adventures and introduces them to some interesting characters, some good, some not so good.

• • Surprise! New Relatives Emerge: Two distant relatives, Barthélémy (Bart), the carefree artist, and Josiane, the sophisticated businesswoman, enter the picture. Can they be the answer the Morlevents are looking for? Or will their different personalities clash and create even more chaos?

• • More Than Just Finding a Home: This story is about family, friendship, facing challenges, and discovering who you are. The siblings learn to rely on each other, laugh through tough times, and figure out what truly matters.

"Oh, boy!" is not just a sad story about losing parents. It's a funny, heartwarming adventure that will make you think, laugh, and maybe even cry a little. It reminds us that even in difficult times, family, friendship, and a sense of humor can help us overcome anything.
