On one side, those who devour and crunch, on the other those who run and roll to avoid being eaten. In the middle of all this world, the storyteller who prepares, seasons, tastes, and serves these round belly tales.

About
Nathalie Bondoux has chosen to serve up three great classics seasoned in her own way: Roule Galette (The Runaway Pancake), Goldilocks, and The Giant Turnip.
Thus, the Pancake rolls freely along the path and meets a bear, a wolf, and a fox without getting eaten.
On the farm, it is not a turnip that they pull on, but a gigantic strawberry.
As for Goldilocks, she ends up being adopted by the three bears.
