ONE THING LEADS TO ANOTHER

De fil en aiguille


The words, fil for thread, and aiguille for needle, are used in this very old French expression for the idea that events follow a logical continuity, as in sewing steps. It's translated as "one thing leads to another," or even "gradually."

One thing does indeed lead to another! The French children's book that my French daughter wrote and which I illustrated, Le lapin et la lune, has progressed to the next logical step, and has just been released in English. It's un conte or tale with a subtle lesson about helping others. If you'd like to know more about it, click here.
