The Tribulations of Th odule brings together eighteen short stories meant to be read with the heart of a child. At the center of this collection stands Th odule, a boy of about ten, who bravely confronts human foolishness wherever he finds it. Along the way, he receives help from the fairies who watch over him.
Idealistic and generous to the core, Th odule carries a message of kindness and tolerance. These tales--tender, symbolic, and emotionally vivid--can be read aloud to children, yet their freshness and enchanting atmosphere will also move adults and perhaps inspire reflection.
The Tribulations of Th odule: 18 Children's Tales speaks to readers of all ages, inviting each of us to rediscover empathy and goodwill.
