The non-profit organization Les Trois Ourses - The Three Bears -, founded in 1988, focuses on the artistic education of children by putting " the book at the center ".

Stimulating the imagination of young children and fostering their capacity to be amazed gives them the ability to carry on an intimate and constructive dialogue with the world around them throughout their lifetime.
