Butter Hat and Glass Slipper

Step into a storytelling whirlwind led by Cécile Bergame. She puts on a butter hat, slips into a spiderweb dress, and dances in tiny glass slippers. Tales tumble out — whimsical, strange, and tender. Children will listen, imagine bright textures, soft voices, and surprising turns. They will follow poetic scenes, picture bold images, and feel curiosity stretch like a ribbon. Moments of laughter and quiet wonder open doors to new stories and possibilities.

In French. Kids ages 4 and up.
