About the author

René Paul Guillot (1900-1969) was an author who lived, worked and traveled in French Africa and wrote primarily for children. His works have been translated to many languages and have been included in school required reading in many countries.

After studying science, René Guillot moved to Senegal to work as a teacher, spending over 20 years in Africa. Most of the material for his many books comes from this time.

In 1964, he received the "Hans Christian Andersen Award" for the novel, Fodai and the Leopard-Men. Three of his books have been adapted to film, while a live-action version of Little Dog Lost featuring a Welsh Corgi, was made for the "Disneyland" show and was broadcast in 1963.

This is by far my favorite book of all time. Ever since I was little I have read this book over and over. I think it is a highly underrated book for horse lovers. Sure the ending is... suggests something darker but it was like other books of it's time. Definitely a must read for horse lovers.

Dirljiva priča o dvanaestogodišnjem dečaku i njegovojj ljubavi prema ždrebetu koje je nazvao Bela Griva. Priča o prijateljstvu i poverenju, šta ono donosi i šta se događa kada se ono izgubi.

Çocuk kitaplarını okumayı çok seviyorum. Küçükken köyde büyüdüğüm için bizimde atımız vardı. Kitabı okurken kendi çocukluğumdan çok fazla referans ile karşılaştım. Çok dokunaklı çok güzeldi!

Kitap güzeldi ama sonunda tam hikayeyi bitirmemiş yazar. Bence öyle iyi değil.

Küçükken okusaydım çok üzülür ağlardım ve unutulmayacak kitaplarım arasında olurdu galiba Şeker Portakalı gibi Beyaz Gemi gibi..
Şimdi de değişen hiçbir şey olmadı aynı hisleri paylaşıyorum. :'(

Rene Guillot (1900-1969)

Kitap hakkındaki en ilginç bilgi bir filmden esinlenilerek yazılmış olması. Normalde tersini duyarız. Verilen bilgiye göre Albert Lamorisse’in 1952’de çektiği Beyaz Yele adlı filmden esinlenerek 1959’da yazmış kitabı yazar. Folko adında on bir yaşındaki bir çocuğun bir at yavrusuyla bağ kurması ve sonrasında olanlar. Merak duygusunu koruyarak okutuyor. Hikâyenin içine giriyorsunuz. Duygudan duyguya geçiriyor. Sonu dramatik.

Çeviri iyi, yerelleştirme tercih edilmiş ama her yerde gerek var mıydı tartışılır. Çizimler Türkçe çeviriye has.

Guillot Goals #1
I have a feeling I may have read this in the dim distant past, but anyway, a fair tale with horses featured which is more about following your dreams etc.
It does feel dated in style, the illustrations were nice.
As the book was on its last legs, and falling apart, I will be the final reader of that particular edition, as it goes forth to be recycled into another product!

[Matija Bodroški · Rating 2 out of 5]

Dosadna i ne zanimjiva knjig.
Nema neku zanimjivu priču i stalo se mota oko istog.
To je lektira za 4. razred i to je jedna od najgora lektira za 4. razred.
Ima par zanimljivih delova zato sam dao ocenu 2

A quick and easy read, nicely written. A young person's adventure story, but this adult enjoyed it. I was surprised by the ending.

Encore une fin désastreusement rageant ce qui fait du livre un livre mémorable et très beau. Si vous êtes en Camargue c est encore mieux pour lire le livre !

I read the physical copy and enjoyed it. I’d recommend it, but it doesn’t quite reach my 4 or 5 star tier.

[Juan Fernandez · Rating 5 out of 5]

Wow….. I was not expecting that ending.

I found this on my shelf and thought I would give it a whirl, in French, as I had not read it since my French O Level in 1985.

I was expecting a sweet story about a boy falling in love with a wild horse. And for most of the book, it is exactly that. Sweet and even a little too safe in places. Either we did not finish the book, or only read extracts, but I do not remember that ending at all and I’m sure I would have remembered it if we’d read it.

I feel traumatised….. genuinely and I love reading hard hitting books.

It’s the sheer surprise of Folco and Crin-Blanc being taken by the water and not making it to safety, after the gardians have set fire to the marshes to round up the wild herd. The shock of that last sentence will stay with me,

“La belle eau les emportait tous deux dans le courant du grand fleuve, jusqu’a une ile merveilleuse ou les enfants et les chevaux sont toujours des amis.”

Honestly,this book sees the death of innocence more brutally than any book I’ve read recently on the theme. Nothing can survive man’s meddling and interference with the natural order and with nature.

Extraordinary! It goes to show how much books, even little books, can shock and surprise. And bless the French for not shying away from a bleak ending even for children.
