This book tells the story of the postman Zephyr, who lives in a little blue village in the mountains where nothing ever changes. A dreamer hoping for adventures, he travels on a cloud, embarking on a fantastic airborne journey that takes him to distant and colourful lands.

Eventually Zephyr falls to earth and meets a beautiful young woman. Together they return to the postman''s home village which is now transformed in Zephyr''s eyes and begin their exciting new life together. Inspired by Chagall''s masterpiece, a world of colour and imagination awaits the readers of this book.

Paintings based on Chagall''s striking palette and elegant lines help tell a simple yet poetic story. The book includes a gorgeous reproduction of Chagall''s masterpiece ''Les Maries de la Tour Eiffel'' (''The Bride and Groom of the Eiffel Tower''), illustrating a journey of words and pictures, and introducing young readers to the work of one of the most popular artists of the twentieth century.
