A narrator recalls his encounter with Elzéard Bouffier, a solitary shepherd of Provence who, planting trees one by one over years, transforms an arid region into a green territory. His quiet work brings life back to abandoned villages and reconciles humanity with nature.

For children aged 8 to 11 who are starting out with classics of French literature, and for adults seeking a short tale about nature.
