Illustrated by
Lulu Delacre.
Delacre's illustrations brighten up this lively bilingual collection of folk songs, rhymes, riddle games, and stories. Bernier-Grand writes a brief note putting each piece of folklore in cultural context. The book includes music for the songs and instructions for the games. This will be a boon to librarians looking for ideas for bilingual story hours.
