«Catherine Certitude» is the children's story by Patrick Modiano with illustrations by Sempé, in paperback (Gallimard Jeunesse, 96 pages, in French).
Catherine Certitude wears glasses like her father and dreams of becoming a dancer like her mother, who lives in New York. When she takes them off to dance, she discovers two worlds: the real and sharp one, and another hazy and kind one where she moves as if in a dream. It is the chronicle of her childhood in Paris and of the bond between a father and his daughter, two dreamers.
It belongs to the Folio Junior collection. The story was originally published in 1988 and this paperback edition is from 2011.
