MoMo - The novel

MoMo: The Boy Who Dreamed of Flying

A Moroccan tale of wonder for every heart that still dares to dream.

There are stories that entertain, and there are stories that stay with you. Meet MoMo, a dreamer from the Moroccan hills, and the duck who refuses to leave his side. Together they chase an impossible idea: that even the poorest boy in these barren lands can learn to fly. Their journey of mischief, laughter and small acts of courage will remind you what it means to hope when life offers nothing but dust.

“The writing is poetic and the story timeless... It took me back to a time when reading felt truly magical and each word spun something new.”
— Chris Wells

From moonlit rooftops to crowded markets, and through the wisdom of old souls like the gentle Old Man Omar, MoMo discovers that real flight begins long before the sky. Readers speak of the same emotions that made them fall in love with The Little Prince and The Alchemist.

“These stories should stand beside The Little Prince, Peter Pan, Snow White and Cinderella.”
— Dan

Told in four glimmering parts—The Egg, The Caterpillar, The Chrysalis and The Butterfly—this is a story about promise, change and the imagination that lifts one life high enough for others to see the stars.

“Superficially it is a children’s book, but look deeper and it is much more. It has real depth for adults and passages of beautiful poetry.”
— Pete

Readers around the world are already calling MoMo a modern fable they wish they had found sooner. Open the first page and you may feel the same.
