Les aventures de Renard servent à divertir tout autant qu'à instruire. C'est une adaptation d'une des œuvres les plus vivantes de la littérature du Moyen-Age, destinée aussi bien aux enfants qu'aux adultes. Renard est très ingénieux : il arrive toujours à se tirer d'un mauvais pas avec malice.

Cependant, si Renard arrive à duper les puissants, il échoue régulièrement quand il s'en prend à plus faible que lui.

Cette adaptation légendaire d'une des œuvres demeurées les plus vivantes de la littérature du Moyen-Age est destinée surtout aux enfants de 6 à 12 ans. Les aventures de Renard le Goupil pourront les divertir. Ils goûteront l'ingéniosité qu'il déploie pour préparer ses bons tours ou pour se tirer d'un mauvais pas mais aussi les instruire, car la transposition de la vie féodale dans le monde des animaux est une parodie amusante des caractères de la société d'aujourd'hui !
