Book is in French Bastien Bonarien. The gnome who saved the bees. The fate of the forest is in the hands of the clumsiest gnome of all, Bastien. He is as clumsy as ever, but his passion for reading will make him a true hero! All the gnomes in the Verazur Forest have a job: there is the shoemaker Mathias Lagodasse, the barber Francis Lacisaille, the veterinarian Kitty Balépatte and so on. All except Bastien: he is very clumsy, he likes to travel with his imagination and especially to read. This is why he is often made fun of, but everything changes when an alert goes off: the bees have disappeared! What does that mean ? . It is precisely Bastien, thanks to the hours spent on his books, who will explain to his friends the importance of these insects. The gnomes will then embark on an adventurous expedition to the great hive and, once again, Bastien's knowledge and imagination will be fundamental in overcoming obstacles, saving the bees and thus the entire forest.
