Description
<p>In the heart of the <i>Bayou</i>, where the <i>Cipre</i> trees rise from the swamp, a <i>Cocodrie</i> slumbers. Can you see it, as you perch in your <i>Arbre à poules</i>? In <i>Nénaine’s</i> kitchen, the aroma of <i>Débris</i> and <i>Jambalaya</i> fills the air. </p> <p><i>B pour bayou</i> [B for bayou] is a cajun ABC in which Richard Guidry (AKA «Le gros Cadien» or «the Big Cajun») and his friends offer up a <i>Gombo</i>-soaked delicacy of words, while illustrator Réjean Roy takes us aboard his <i>Esquif</i>, down the Mississippi. </p> <p>After <i>Ah! pour Atlantique</i>, we leave the Acadie of the Maritimes for the Cajun Acadia of Louisiana!</p>
