L'abri
À travers la brume, sous le vent qui hurle, deux ombres s'avancent au loin. Par la lucarne des maisons, chacun les observe. Qui sont ces étrangers qui bravent la tempête ? Que font-ils là et que veulent-ils donc ? Nos provisions, nos vêtements, nos maisons ?
Commenté dans la revue Les libraires par Pierre-Alexandre Bonin, librairie Monet
Céline Claire signe ici un magnifique album. Alors que les animaux se serrent les coudes à l’approche d’une tempête, l’arrivée de deux étrangers provoque une vague de méfiance qui amène les habitants de la forêt à fermer leur porte et leur cœur. Heureusement, un acte de bonté survient, et sera ensuite payé de la même bonté en retour. Le texte touche droit au cœur. Quant aux illustrations de Qin Leng, avec leur délavé qui rappelle l’aquarelle, elles mettent en lumière l’absurdité de vivre dans la peur de l’autre, alors qu’on a tant à offrir. Un album incontournable qui enseigne aux enfants (et rappelle aux adultes) que la peur est mauvaise conseillère, et que c’est dans les situations difficiles qu’il importe d’ouvrir son cœur à l’autre. Dès 4 ans.
