The young pirate’s Parrot

Zeno and the parrot. Saint Tropez, 1997.

As children, we dream of becoming pirates, but what an arduous journey: it’s a big step from the back of the chair to your shoulder! But Nico is a magical parrot. By forcing children to overcome their fears, he transforms them into courageous pirates who will then go out and navigate the ups and downs of their existence with the upmost confidence, ready to seize the bounties in life.

Enfant, on rêve d’être pirate mais l’apprentissage est difficile ; il y a encore du chemin du dossier de la chaise à l’épaule ! Mais Nico est un perroquet magique. En obligeant les enfants à surmonter leurs craintes, il les transforme en courageux pirates qui fendront sans crainte les flots de l’existence, prêts à s’emparer de tous les trésors de la vie.
