Belle et Sébastien

In the interview with Cécile Aubry and Mehdi El Glaoui for the DVD release, she said that the fact that Mehdi hardly knew his father, who she separated from soon after Mehdi's birth, inspired her to write stories for him about lonely boys abandoned by or estranged from their fathers. This is true of this series, and also Le jeune Fabre (1973).
