Each of us is capable of telling one or more of La Fontaine's fables. It is by making this observation that the author was led to invent, during his missionary stays, fables in which jungle animals are the heroes. Its goal was to illustrate the great spiritual truths in a simple and meaningful way.
In this his approach was no different from that of Jesus and his parables.
You will discover with pleasure the adventures of many little monkeys reluctant to listen to the wise exhortations of Twiga the giraffe or Boohoo the hippopotamus. Each fable is contextualized in the form of a dialogue around the campfire. It is supplemented by some avenues for reflection.
This book contains the following fables:
- The monkey, the mirror and the red paint
