Diabou, sitting on the sand, is cracking walnuts when a ravenous lion comes into the village. All the villagers, scared out of their wits, shut themselves in their huts-all except Diabou, the little girl who is never scared. The astonished lion stops right next to her: nobody has ever dared stand up to it, so a terrific fight ensues between the lion and Diabou. The little girl ends up swallowing the lion; absolutely petrified in this unknown environment, the lion tries to get out of Diabou's stomach.
