| Publisher Description: See below for English description. Chaque apr s-midi, seize heures, monsieur Rodriguez marche dans les rues du village. Les enfants l'observent, intrigu s par cet homme nigmatique la moustache blanche. Certains disent avoir vu monsieur Rodriguez flotter. D'autres pr tendent l'avoir vu jouer du piano sans toucher l'instrument. La v rit est plus encore plus merveilleuse que tout ce que les enfants auraient pu imaginer. L'auteure de renom Christiane Duchesne et l'illustrateur prim Fran ois Thisdale ont cr une v ritable ode l'imagination. Every afternoon at four o'clock, Mister Rodriguez steps out of a narrow laneway and strolls through the street. The village children watch him go, ever more curious about the enigmatic old man with the bushy white mustache. Some say they've seen him float above the ground. Others say he played a piano without touching a single key. The truth, though, is more beautiful than any of the children could have imagined. Renown author Christiane Duchesne and award-winning illustrator Fran ois Thisdale bring a touching story about the passing of a beloved member of the community to life with delicacy and heart. Original title: Bon voyage, Mister Rodriguez |
