En décrivant un hypothétique conflit entre les lettres, le conte "La guerre des voyelles et des consonnes" donne vie aux entités abstraites qui constituent le langage, et interroge de manière humoristique leurs différents regroupements comme la constitution des mots.

Le but est de favoriser le lien social et soutenir l'égalité des chances.
