In this fable full of tenderness, the great existential questions of life take shape.

Leaning back against his tree, Tulip the Bear watches his companions bustle about in vain: Crocus the Snake combats his anxiety by staying busy every minute of the day, Violet the Bird is looking for a way to contact her lover the Sun, and the Stone laments the fact that he’s nothing but a stone. What’s life but a bag chock full of wee troubles and huge annoyances? But as Crocus once put it so well: pause for crêpes every now and then, and you’ll get by.
