A community of beavers lives peacefully along a stream in the Vallon des Grands-Vents. One day, the ingenious Henri proposes a challenge to his fellow beavers: build a large dam on the river where all the beavers can live together. To read Le Grand barrage (The Great Dam) is to discover the importance of passing on knowledge and the consequences of letting it be forgotten. This beautiful story written for children aged 6 to 12 explores the customs of our ancestors, whether human or animal.
