Le conte chaud et doux des Chaudoudoux

by Claude Steiner, Pef (Illustrateur)

En ce temps-là, tout le monde vivait très heureux et échangeait d'inépuisables chaudoudoux, jusqu'au jour où l'abominable sorcière Belzépha conçut un plan diabolique... Adaptation française de A Warm Fuzzy Tale, célèbre conte de Claude Steiner, psychologue et disciple d'Eric Berne, le fondateur de l'Analyse transactionnelle. Celle-ci est utilisée pour comprendre, gérer, changer et améliorer les relations entre des individus, des organisations. Cette adaptation a été réalisée par François Paul-Cavallier, thérapeute en visualisation, formateur. De Moi, ma grand mère à La belle lisse poire du prince de Motordu, les livres écrits ou illustrés par PEF témoignent de sa tendresse et de son amour pour la vie. Il a accepté d'illustrer ce conte parce qu'il ressemble lui-même à un chaudoudoux.

About the author

I am a clinical psychologist and transactional analyst. Since 1965 I have studied, written, taught and lectured about the importance of, and relationship between, rational information and the emotions--especially love -- and how these two factors affect our personal power.


I have developed a program for emotional literacy training (click here) using transactional analysis (click here) principles and methods.

I actually did not read this book...I heard it over and over again at campfires as a child. The premise sticks with me to this day, to the point I get a kind of cold prickly sensation at the back of my head when I say or think something really mean (which I hope is rare). Talk about Pavlovian. I would be a happy camper if I could find this book and revisit the story.

Nuostabi terapinė pasaka. Ji išversta į daugelį kalbų ir žinoma visame pasaulyje. Puikiai tinka bet kurio amžiaus vaikams ir suaugusiems:)

"... Nagi tais laimingais laikais, kiekvienas gimdamas gaudavo po mažutėlį, minkštutėlį Švelnukų maišelį. Vos panorėjęs, žmogus galėjo įkišti į jį ranką ir išsitraukti Šiltą Švelnuką. Šiltų Švelnukų visiems labai reikėjo, nes juos gavęs žmogus kaip mat pasijusdavo pilnas šilumos ir švelnumo..."

Sometime in the haze of the 1970s, Claude Steiner decided to promote free love by writing a children's book. In 1977, it was published. Perhaps it seemed like a good idea at the time.

The Golden Rule is explored in a different and more interactive way. I like this book as a preservice teacher because it will give me a way to introduce this concept in an engaging way.

Certainly outdated in many respects. It is a difficult to swallow a character called "Hip Woman." However, the essence is beautiful. I wish this could be written and modernized.

Outstanding book. This is one book that EVERYONE MUST HAVE in their library!

Un livre pour enfants souvent cité par Hélène Bonhomme. L'histoire est sympa (ne pas être avare de chaudoudoux, qui se renouvellent à la fin) mais j'ai été un peu déçue par la fin de l'histoire (à croire que seuls les enfants remettent en pratique ce principe) et les visuels un peu sombres de Pef (moins colorés que pour les albums du Prince de Motordu)

[Pascal Scallon-Chouinard · Rating 4 out of 5]

Un classique! Une fable sur l’amour, le bonheur et la bienveillance, qui aborde les conséquences de la jalousie, de l’envie et du matérialisme. Ça invite à réfléchir sur les relations avec les autres et sur ce qui importe véritablement.

I recently red Steiner's Emotional Literacy (which is very good by the way) and there he made a reference to this tale. I love it, and the symbology in it.

Favola che spiega come funziona l'essere umano in relazione con l'altro e con se stesso. Una lettura piacevole e veloce. 4/5

[Monty · Rating 3 out of 5]

This book is a nice reminder that we can share joy with others without depleting ourselves. The end of the book leaves the reader in a position to choose how to make this happen.

Classic story about the difference between kindness and selfishness, complements and insults.

[Alma · Rating 5 out of 5]

Nerealiai graži istorija, tarpasmeninių santykių, bendravimo metafora.

[Bookovaurus Rex · Rating 3 out of 5]

Un conte sympa, qui illustre très bien l'analyse transactionnelle. Par contre, vraiment, PEF c est pas possible....

[Ian · Rating 5 out of 5]

I do not know how effective it is to review and recommend this book, as my own search to procure a copy as been fruitless as of this time.

I grew up reading this book which essentially helps children to understand the golden rule and how showing kindness eventually brings to their own lives peace and tranquility even if others insist on wronging them.

Actually, I may have gone a little overboard in claiming the scope of the story, but any child will get the point.

If you manage to find a copy, kudos to you. This book (like the golden rule itself) is timeless.

There's a message here, which is important for making sure you have more happiness in your life.

I grew up on cold prickly's, and now do my best to make sure I only have warm furries (we changed it to furries, it felt softer than fuzzies).

[Macy Morrison · Rating 5 out of 5]

I love this book because you can do a great lesson with the warm fuzzies that you can use in your classroom year long. I plan on using this in my classroom. It can be used for all younger kids, no matter the age.

I mean come on! Warm Fuzzies... who can say NO!

Super cute book

[Elaine Ker · Rating 4 out of 5]

Je ne m'attendais pas du tout à une histoire pareille. C'est très métaphorique, et… inachevé? Et je ne comprends pas tout à fait le message? C'est peut-être trop abstrait

[Maris · Rating 5 out of 5]

One of my favorite childhood books! Hello, '70s feel-good anti-establishment lovefest!
