Rubin is a little boy who lives in Nepal. He loves to travel the land to discover the nature that surrounds him. He spends a lot of time admiring flowers, climbing trees and listening to the sounds of animals.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
One day, while he was frolicking not far from his village, he suddenly heard small moans deep in a den. Rubin, who is not one to be afraid, decided to go and see where the noise was coming from.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
It was then that he discovered a small creature in the cavity! It looked like a bear cub, but it was red, with a long tail and a white snout... maybe a fox? In any case, Rubin quickly realized that it was a very young animal and that it had lost its mother.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
He decides to take him home. His grandfather will tell him what to do!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
But as soon as he arrived in the village, a man approached Rubin and asked him:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\"This animal has value, I\u2019ll buy you a good price if you agree?\"<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Suspicious Rubin replies, \"But what's so special about it that you want to buy it from me?\"<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The man explains to him: Look at his beautiful fur with this color of fire. It\u2019s highly sought after, its skin will be used to make a lot of things, like a hat, for example\u00bb.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
But for Rubin, there is no way to hurt his prot\u00e9g\u00e9. He politely refuses and goes home to his grandfather.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\"Look, Grandpa, I found this cub: half fox, half bear!\" <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Hello Rubin. Oh! But it\u2019s not just any creature you found. It\u2019s a red panda! But its mother must be worried. And it looks hungry.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
At the same time the little panda jumped out of Rubin\u2019s arms to drink the milk that was intended for the house cat, which made the little boy and his grandfather laugh a lot.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Rubin explained then : \"It was alone and groaning. I think its mother is missing. What do I have to do to help it?\"<\/p>\n\n\n\n
His grandfather had an idea: Let\u2019s go to the other side of the mountain. There is a protected forest for red pandas. It\u2019ll be safe there, and it\u2019ll be able to eat a lot of foliage.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Foliage? That\u2019s what Rubin seems curious about. The old man tells him that this animal needs to eat a lot of bamboo once it becomes adult.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The next day, Rubin, his grandfather and the red panda set off on the other side of the mountain.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The red panda spends the whole way sleeping in the arms of the little boy. Rubin, however, admires the magnificent landscape.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
When they arrive at the edge of the protected forest, a man welcomes them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cHi, I\u2019m one of the guardians of this forest. I see you bring a very young red panda!\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Rubin says, \"I found it all alone, near my village. I don\u2019t want people killing it to take it skin!\"<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The ranger reassures him immediately: Here it will not risk anything. But it is a little young to be released. We\u2019re going to have to keep it in a little enclosure until he grows up.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Rubin is puzzled: \"A pen? What is that?\"<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The guard then explains to him that an enclosure is a fenced space in which the animal can live in complete safety.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Further on, there were indeed enclosures with several red pandas, probably wounded or too weak to be released into the wild. The little panda in Rubin\u2019s arms was also watching with interest.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
All together, they move towards the enclosures. Rubin is a bit sad because he will soon leave his red panda friend. The guard offers to give it a name, in memory of his rescue. After reflection, he decided to call it Saathi, which means friend in Nepalese.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Meanwhile Rubin\u2019s grandfather notices a female red panda who follows them with a groan. He said, \u201cLook, it looks like she recognizes him. Saathi must be her son.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The guard said: It is quite possible, this female arrived yesterday, poachers captured her. But we confiscated them before they took her away.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Rubin then enters the enclosure to drop Saathi who, full of impatience, jumps to the ground! It runs towards its mother. She greets it with great joy, she has got her cub back! Together, they feel, lick, play with happiness\u2026<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Happy to see them like this, Rubin and his grandfather greet the ranger before returning home.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
A few weeks later, the guard comes to see Rubin to offer to release Saathi and its mother together. So they go to the forest with the red pandas.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
When Rubin opens the cage, the two animals go all cheerful towards a bamboo grove! They begin to taste the leaves with greed. The young boy is full of satisfaction to have helped to save these two small pandas.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
He decided that, when he's old enough, he too would become a guardian of the forest, the one that protect Saathi and its fellow.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Rubin now devotes all his time to bringing red pandas back to Freedom.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The end. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
H. Allaire<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
Who are you ?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Once upon a time, in a faraway land, three young people were wandering in a forest, under the watchful eye of their nanny, Mrs. Owl. Prosper the raccoon and Viky the fox were playing tag, circling around their friend, Milo the badger, who was grumbling at them:<\/p>\n\n\n\n - Go play somewhere other than my paws, or I\u2019ll bite you!<\/p>\n\n\n\n - Come on, Milo, be nice to your little friends! Intervened Mrs Owl.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Suddenly the little badger stopped dead in his tracks: There was something in the trees.<\/p>\n\n\n\n - I\u2019ll see, I\u2019ll see! Says Prosper as he begins to climb.<\/p>\n\n\n\n But Mrs Owl stopped him :<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u2013 No, Prosper, it could be dangerous! Go hide behind a tree trunk, I'll see what it is!<\/p>\n\n\n\n And she flew off into the branches. The three friends looked at each other for a moment and then started to run after her. Mrs. Owl was agile and flew between the branches. She easily caught up with the little creature, who had run away when she saw herself discovered.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u2013 Don\u2019t be afraid, my little one! We won\u2019t hurt you!<\/p>\n\n\n\n The three young people who were running stopped at the foot of the trunk from where they heard their nanny's voice.<\/p>\n\n\n\n - Do you see anything? Milo asked.<\/p>\n\n\n\n - No, there are too many leaves in the trees, Viky replied.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u2013 I\u2019m going up! Says Prosper.<\/p>\n\n\n\n He climbed up to the first branch and looked a little higher. From here he could see Mrs. Owl, and about a meter away from her, a curious animal. He went back down at once to tell his friends what he had seen:<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u2013 It looks like me, but it\u2019s red, like you Viky!<\/p>\n\n\n\n - A fox ?<\/p>\n\n\n\n - No, it really looks like a raccoon, but red! And it knows how to climb trees!<\/p>\n\n\n\n At the same time, Mrs. Owl landed next to them, the strange animal coming down to meet them, head first! Amazing!<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u2013 This is Elo\u00efse. She is a bit shy, so be nice to her!<\/p>\n\n\n\n Viky approached her to smell her.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cIt\u2019s true that you look like Prosper! But you\u2019re not gray, like him! And you don\u2019t have the same smell,\u201d she said to him. \u201cAre you some kind of raccoon?\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n Eloise shook her head to say no.<\/p>\n\n\n\n - She doesn\u2019t speak well yet, kids.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Prosper, qui \u00e9tait le plus curieux de la bande, s\u2019\u00e9tait lui aussi approch\u00e9, pour regarder Elo\u00efse de plus pr\u00e8s.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \"Maybe it's a fox, then,\" he said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cOh no, I\u2019m sure,\u201d Viky said. \u201cDid you see how she came down the tree? I can\u2019t even climb up!\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n Eloise emitted a small cry.<\/p>\n\n\n\n - Are you hungry? asked Mrs Owl.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The little creature nodded.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u2013 Yes, we\u2019re hungry too! The three young people exclaimed at the same time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n - And what do you eat, little one?<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u2013 Ban-ou, she tried to articulate.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u2013 Ban-ou? Viky asked. What is that, Madame Owl?<\/p>\n\n\n\n - Bam-oo! Said Elo\u00efse, a little stronger this time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u2013 I think she means bamboo! The nanny intervened.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Bamboo? The three young people opened wide eyes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cWhat animal can eat bamboo?\u201d asked Milo, who hadn\u2019t yet opened his mouth.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u2013 I know, I know! Viky says. A panda!<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u2013 But a panda is black and white, isn\u2019t it? Prosper asked.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u2013 Let\u2019s go see Mr. Paulie, children. If anyone can tell us if Eloise is a panda, it\u2019s him. Come on, Eloise, Mr. Paulie is a panda. We\u2019ll probably find him in a bamboo grove. You can eat!<\/p>\n\n\n\n Elo\u00efse jumped with joy and the whole little troupe set out for the bamboo grove. Mr. Paulie was actually there chewing a long rod.<\/p>\n\n\n\n - Sorry to disturb you during your meal, Mr. Paulie\u2026 We have a short question to ask you, Viky began.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The panda looked at them, continuing to chew his bamboo. Prosper moved forward a little, and pointing at Eloise asked:<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u2013 Mr. Paulie, is Eloise a panda, like you?<\/p>\n\n\n\n Little Eloise had begun to eat bamboo leaves voraciously. Mr. Paulie looked at her and said:<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u2013 Yes, it is indeed a panda.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u2013 But still, she's not black and white, like you, Viky intervened.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u2013 No, because it\u2019s a red panda!<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cA red panda?\u201d the three young people exclaimed in chorus.<\/p>\n\n\n\n - There are red pandas? asked Viky.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u2013 Yes, you can see that! Now let me eat my meal in peace!<\/p>\n\n\n\n And Mr. Paulie turned to catch another bamboo rod.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Suddenly, Elo\u00efse ran into the grove.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u2013 Elo\u00efse, comes back! Cried Mrs Owl.<\/p>\n\n\n\n They all followed her and came face to face with a larger animal, which looked exactly like little Eloise. It was her mother! She had gone into the thicket to feed and had left Eloise hidden in a tree. But Eloise had wanted to follow her mother and had come out of hiding. That's when she heard the small group and got scared. But now Eloise had found her mother again and was hopping around her.<\/p>\n\n\n\n - Come on, kids, let\u2019s go home! Said Mrs Owl.<\/p>\n\n\n\n - Will you come for a walk with us again, Elo\u00efse? asked Viky.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The little panda looked at his mother, who licked his forehead in agreement. She then nodded, delighted to have made new friends.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The end. <\/p>\n\n\n\n A-G P\u00e9rio<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n The Child and the Little Panda<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n The fourth graders of the Acqueville school (Normandy) worked on one of the stories we put online. They sent us a dozen little stories. To reward them, we decided to publish one. Here is \u00abThe Child and the Little Panda\u00bb, by Camille and Lisa, because we had to choose one, but we want to thank all the children for their work!<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n This is the story of a little panda named Saathi, he is walking in a bamboo forest. And suddenly a snow leopard that was hiding in the forest appears and jumps on him. But a little boy named Leo, who loves animals very much, arrives to save him from the snow leopard's clutches. He is a brave nine-year-old boy with brown hair and brown eyes. He scares the panda by shouting very loudly and waving branches found on the ground. Then the snow leopard goes back into the bamboo forest and never comes back. Saathi jumps into Leo's arms. Leo's friend tells him to go to a protected forest. The next day they go to the other side of the mountain. And they meet a very kind protector with black hair, his name is Hugo, he is twenty years old. He tells them to put Saathi in a protected forest with the other red pandas. Then Leo said goodbye to him.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Saathi le petit panda Rubin est un petit gar\u00e7on qui vit au N\u00e9pal.
