Why The Animals No Longer Fear The Sheep - A French Creole Folk Tale
Hello, I’m Clive Gilson, The Story Guy, and this is Tales From The World’s Firesides. Today, our journey takes us to the Gallic world and to the Caribbean, where French Creole stories once drifted across sugar fields and along the warm winds of the islands, tales carried from Africa, reshaped in the New World, and told again beneath starlit skies.
This is the story of Why the Animals No Longer Fear the Sheep, a slightly longer tale than usual, bit worth the time.
Stories like this remind us that wherever we are, across islands or continents, from Africa to Europe to the Americas, we are never far from wonder. Every people finds its own way to speak of courage and folly, of laughter and loss, and of that fragile space where the human and the magical meet.
If you’d like to wander further along these story paths, you’ll find my full collections of folklore, from the Arctic to the Caribbean, from the Philippines to Zanzibar, available in both print and digital form.
