Translated by Claudine Mersereau.
A kindhearted lion king takes in a homeless little elephant. When the elephant grows big, the king becomes insecure: "You need to leave because I no longer feel like the king." Years later, the elephant spots the now-deposed king sleeping on the sidewalk and returns the lion's original kindness. This psychologically attuned story (first published in France) features painterly, feelings-first illustrations in crown-jewel colors.
