Tales and fables for children
Every day, Grey Cat goes to the pond to fish. But this morning, as if by magic, a full basket of fish turns up in a rowboat abandoned in the middle of the water. An unexpected gift that will also complicate the day. How will Grey Cat, who is afraid of water, get to the basket full of fish? Should he listen to the wily but full of ideas Owl, or trust his hungry belly?
This lovely tale is designed for children aged 3 to 6. It plunges us into the wonderful world of ponds and asks us about the different approaches we can adopt to succeed in a more or less difficult task. There's no question of no-kill in this little story - the fish are already dead...
