Lucienne, an only child, is enjoying perfect happiness when suddenly her parents announce big news: she is going to become a big sister! At first, Lucienne was a little worried, but her parents' enthusiasm quickly reassures her. However, as soon as her brother is born, everything changes: Jacques occupies his parents day and night, and Lucienne feels alone. When her mother smiles, Lucienne no longer believes her: where has the cheerfulness gone that previously lit up her smile? Lucienne decides to become the best big sister in the world to bring joy back to her family. Will Lucienne succeed in helping her mother find her true smile, the one that makes the blue of her eyes shine? A story about family, illness, but above all, love.
