La Patisserie
To treat family and friends, everyone wants to learn how to cook desserts. Patisserie is all the rage! As proof, there are even televised competitions to become France’s best pastry chef. Children are no exception to the rule, and love to be in the kitchen with their parents to concoct tasty cakes, or accompany them to the supermarket to choose cookies for the afternoon snack. The “P’tits Docs” therefore had to take a closer look at these sweet treats with their long history (pancakes, gingerbread and doughnuts were already being made in the Middle Ages) and present on every continent (gourmets are everywhere!). And why not create vocations? Bakers, pastry-makers, industrial manufacturers: timeless professions with an enticing vocabulary: shortcrust pastry, puff pastry, topping, milling, kneading. Mmm, what a delight!

À l’école du Grand Nord: School in the Far North
Mike Horn is a professional adventurer. He tackles the most remote lands, the most extreme terrain and the most difficult conditions. From his expeditions to the Amazon, the Arctic and around the equator, he has learnt lessons about survival, of course, but above all about life. And it’s these lessons that he wants his daughters to discover. Because in his eyes, a father must pass on a unique heritage to his children. Being a father means being a ferryman. And what better school than the Far North, where every gesture counts, where solidarity is the basis of survival, where human warmth fights every storm? Annika and Jessica are twelve and eleven years old. On the ice of Bylot Island, they cross crevasses and snow bridges, climb the peaks, set up camp and plan their routes. Mike keeps a watchful eye, of course, it’s dangerous, but he lets them take the initiative. In agreement with his wife Cathy, he wants them to make their own decisions. The school in the Far North is what every parent dreams of for their child. A school where a sense of effort, of sharing and of caring for others is passed on by necessity. A school that helps you become a better adult.
