The songs “Monday, Monday” and “California dreamin ‘” were million seller for the band The Mamas and the Papas in the mid-1960s. In “California dreamin ‘” Pénélope Bagieu describes the bumpy road that singer Cass Elliot took to success. Cass Elliot was born Ellen Naomi Cohen, child of Jewish immigrants, in Baltimore and had the dream of becoming a star from an early age. But she suffered from bulimia and was overweight – and what is difficult in school becomes an obstacle in show business.

Thanks to a great voice, solid self-confidence and good friends, she makes it: In the flower power era she becomes a star and her interpretation of the classic “Dream a little dream of me” with The Mamas and the Papas is one of her greatest successes. With charming drawings and a gripping story, Pénélope Bagieu brings the “intrepid” Cass Elliot back to life!
