One boy's aspiration towards the achievement of all that we use tocall the dreams, and the reality of achieved ones, are the journey of one ofthose boys whom it is rumoured about that they consciously decide not togrow up. I've never even intended that, neither I've known how to do it. Justimagine, the child's aspiration to become big, to reach the highest branch.Unlike the most of the children who were rising up in arms againstgrowing up process, the Boy neither knew how nor he managed to grow up,and he didn't intend, not at all, to disturb the tale of a Big world.
