Pantagruel

Son of Gargantua, Pantagruel—who, as a baby, smashes his cradle to pieces, strangles a bear, and devours his nurse’s knuckle—ushers in the French Renaissance. He is a kindly giant who spreads terror and whose exploits outshine those of Hercules. Yet Rabelais prefers Panurge even more: the jack-of-all-trades, an unscrupulous eternal student who knows sixty-three ways of getting money, all of them fairly dishonest. And off these two monsters set, embarking on fabulous journeys.

"Pantagruel" is available on Storyplay'r in an illustrated version, in an audio version narrated by french native storytellers. Thanks to our reading module, we can offer a reading aid for this story as well as for all the other ones, and tools for a dyslexic children adapted version.
