LA FONTAINE

One Tuesday morning, a yellow hat emerges from the surface of the municipal fountain. The next day, it’s a yellow drum’s turn. Then appear a yellow rocking horse, roller skates, cowboy boots, a garden gnome, objects adorned with mustaches… By evening, the whole town is talking about nothing but the incredible gifts offered by the fountain. Renowned experts, coming from distant lands, arrive to investigate. The mayor sets up visiting days and has a traffic light installed. But no one ever manages to uncover the secret of the fountain. Then, one day, the fountain disappears, just as mysteriously as it had appeared. But its magic remains…
