The Lost Drop

Written by Grégoire Laforce

Illustrated by Benjamin Flouw

Flo, a little drop of water, falls out of the sky and into the world for the first time. Unaware of the nature of her surroundings, or even her mere existence, she wonders who she is and where she’s supposed to go. As life pulls her in different directions, puts obstacles in her path, and guides her towards other living creatures, the answers to her questions lack clarity. That is, until she finally sees the light and, suddenly, it all makes sense. The Lost Drop is an illuminating fictional story about finding one’s place in the world, buoyed by the nonfictional story of a scientific process known as the water cycle.

One day, as the pair start their delivery route, they load the parcels to be delivered into their truck — including a huge box. Off they go to make their rounds! But in the meantime, in the back of the delivery truck, a gorilla busts out of the large box and starts making a total mess of the other parcels! How will the pair keep their promise of delivering all the packages — and, more importantly, will the Movers manage to deliver their new friend?
