Monica-Claire at the Festival du Voyageur

Ginette Fournier

Description

Didi the dragonfly is at her wit’s end—she needs Monica-Claire’s help. Their mischievous friend, No-Tail the squirrel, has a play to perform in exactly one hour and he’s nowhere to be found! It’s wintertime in St. Boniface, and No-Tail’s not one to resist a good time . . . Could he be at the Festival du Voyageur?
Discover the surprises that await Monica-Claire, Didi, and their friends at this wonderful Manitoban winter celebration, and join them as they search the neighbourhood for their furry friend. Will they manage to find No-Tail before showtime?
This tale of French-Canadian joie de vivre, the second entry in the Monica-Claire series, is an imaginative story that pays homage to the largest winter festival in Western Canada and the legendary voyageur era.
