Ema doesn't remember ever living anywhere other than with the other children without parents in the Orphanage. Not much fits between them. He can hear and see things that other children cannot see or hear - for example, little fairies... He is very much looking forward to his tenth birthday. A trip to the breathtaking City, which is hidden behind a high wall, awaits her. In the end, her wait will be extended by another year, but it will be worth it. Ema takes away a lot of adventurous experiences and experiences from the City. But above all, a magical book that will change not only her life, but also everyone else in the Orphanage.
