Dans un petit village entouré de collines verdoyantes, un mystère revenait chaque année : qui réveillait le printemps ? Léa et Tom, deux frères et sœurs curieux, avaient remarqué qu’un matin, sans prévenir, les fleurs s’ouvraient, les oiseaux chantaient plus fort et l’air sentait bon le miel et l’herbe fraîche. — Cette fois, on va découvrir qui apporte le printemps ! déclara Tom, déterminé. Armés de leur carnet et d’un crayon, ils partirent explorer la forêt. En marchant, ils croisèrent Dame Coccinelle qui se reposait sur une feuille. — Dame Coccinelle, est-ce vous qui réveillez le printemps ? demanda Léa. — Oh non, répondit-elle en riant. Mais quand il arrive, je profite du soleil pour étirer mes ailes rouges et noires ! Plus loin, ils rencontrèrent M. Hérisson, qui bâillait à s’en décrocher la mâchoire. — Est-ce vous, M. Hérisson, qui ramenez le printemps ? — Pas du tout ! J’hibernais sous un tas de feuilles, et c’est la chaleur qui m’a réveillé. Les enfants continuèrent leur quête jusqu’à la clairière où dansaient des papillons multicolores. — Peut-être est-ce vous, les papillons, qui apportez le printemps ? — Nous ? Non, mais quand il arrive, nous sortons de nos cocons pour colorer le ciel ! Déçus, Léa et Tom s’assirent sous un grand chêne. — Personne ne sait qui réveille le printemps… soupira Tom. Soudain, une douce brise caressa leurs visages et une voix murmurante s’éleva. — C’est la nature tout entière qui le réveille. Le soleil se fait plus chaud, la pluie nourrit la terre, les bourgeons grandissent, et petit à petit, tout s’éveille… Les enfants sourirent. Le printemps n’avait pas un seul gardien, mais un orchestre entier de saisons, de vent, de lumière et de vie. Heureux de leur découverte, ils rentrèrent chez eux, prêts à célébrer le retour du printemps en plantant des fleurs et en construisant un nichoir pour les oiseaux. Et depuis ce jour, à chaque printemps, ils prenaient le temps d’admirer la magie du réveil de la nature.

The smell of boiled crawfish filled the Louisiana kitchen, mixing with steam rising from the big silver pot. The wooden table was covered in newspaper, already stained with seasoning, and piled high with bright red crawfish, steaming potatoes, and golden corn. Gage sat on his knees, eyes wide as he stared at the mound of crawfish in front of him. His little brother wiggled in his high chair, smacking the tray while Daddy leaned back with a grin, beer in hand. Momma rolled up her sleeves. “Alright, cher, time to learn how to peel a crawfish.” Momma laughed, grabbing a fat crawfish. “Ain’t no wrong way, long as you get the meat out. But I’ll show you the right way.” She held the crawfish up. “First, grab it where the head and tail meet—right here. Now twist.” With a quick motion, she popped off the head. “Some folks suck the head for the good juices.” Gage gagged. “Ew, no way!” Daddy chuckled. “More for me, then!” Momma shook her head, smiling. “Alright, suit yourself. Now, pinch the end of the tail, squeeze a little, and pull.” She slid out the perfect piece of meat and dipped it in butter. “See? Easy.” Gage copied her, his fingers fumbling at first—twist, pinch, pull. Out came the juicy meat. “I did it!” Momma clapped. “That’s my boy! Now try it.” He dipped it in the butter and took a bite. His face lit up. “Mmm! That’s good!” His little brother babbled, reaching for the pile. Daddy laughed. “Looks like we got another crawfish lover.” The kitchen filled with laughter as they peeled and ate, passing corn and potatoes around. Gage wiped his hands and reached for another. “Momma, I think I’m getting good at this.”Momma ruffled his hair. “Told you, cher. Crawfish season ain’t just about eatin’. It’s about family.” And that night, under the warm glow of their Cajun kitchen, Gage became a true crawfish peeler.
