Born with a frozen heart, Jack is near death when his mother abandons him to the care of Dr. Madeleine--witch doctor, midwife, protector of orphans--who saves Jack by placing a cuckoo clock in his chest. And it is in her orphanage that Jack grows up among tear-filled flasks, eggs containing memories, and a man with a musical spine. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eAs Jack gets older, Dr. Madeleine warns him that his heart is too fragile for strong emotions: he must never, ever fall in love. And, of course, this is exactly what he does: on his tenth birthday and with head-over-heels abandon. The object of his ardor is Miss Acacia--a bespectacled young street performer with a soul-stirring voice. But now Jack's life is doubly at risk--his heart is in danger and so is his safety after he injures the school bully in a fight for the affections of the beautiful singer.\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eMATHIAS MALZIEU is the lead singer of the French band Dionysos. \u003ci\u003eThe Boy with the Cuckoo-Clock Heart\u003c\/i\u003e is the basis for an album that Malzieu wrote, and he is codirector of an animated feature-film adaptation produced by Luc Besson.
