Alex needs cheering up. He has lost his Mum, had to change schools and he wants a dog for company. His Dad likes a local café, run by Madam Hortense who regulates the espresso coffee machine with a whoosh of steam and magic. One whoosh and Alex finds himself in a magic world, ruled by Ferdy, an old pirate.
Alex is granted a wish but cannot think what he needs. His remark, “ Well, I’ve just started French” is enough for Ferdy to fly him off to France where he enters a world of French characters from Joan of Arc to a singer Chantadou who has lost his voice.
