What does the story tell
What does the story tell
The story: The child discovers the secret of HIS birth: alerted by the godfather and godmother (both frightened by the parents' blissful love), fairies will bend over the baby's cradle to offer him the talents of different professions, which correspond to the letters of his first name. For example, little Emma Chevalier will have the team spirit of an electrician, will be charismatic like a ski instructor, will benefit from the intuition of the dog handler, will become calm like a beekeeper, etc.
Positive reinforcement for the child:
The book was written by Marie Thibaut de Maisières, for her 4-year-old daughter. “When my daughter said to me: “Quick, quick, mom, we have to clean everything, the dwarves are going to come home!” » It was time that I offered her other options than that of an obsessive cleaning princess in a small provincial shed and it worked: today, the languid princess swept away, I hear my daughter proudly telling her friends: “In my book, it's me who shows Santa Claus in which chimney he should put the presents!” Written to be comical for children AND parents. “The Book of Talents” is above all a manifesto of positive reinforcement for the child. The child, the hero of the book, will discover his talents and open the doors to different professions, from the most prestigious (like the neurosurgeon) to the most practical and useful (like the garbage collector) including the most zany (like the taxidermist).

"She has a diary full of meetings,
A driver, good diction...
Above all, the minister has convictions.
You too will defend your opinions! "
