    Creator

    Gilbert, François

    Abstract

    Mikael Dionne a seize ans, bientôt dix-sept. Il a quitté la Beauce pour une dérive montréalaise qui l'a conduit, après un vol à l'étalage raté, à devenir un dévot de Krishna. Quand il débarque dans son village natal vêtu en moine, le crâne rasé, il fait figure d'extraterrestre. C'est l'occasion de retrouver malgré lui son ancienne identité, son frère, sa parenté, ses amis, le curé de sa paroisse, qui critiquent son choix et cherchent à le ramener dans le « droit chemin ». Mais cette vie tracée d'avance peut-elle encore lui convenir ?

  • Dylan the eagle-hearted chicken

    Creator

    Harrison, David L

    Abstract

    It all began with the egg. If the egg hadn't been so hard, Ethel wouldn't have needed to stretch her legs. And if Ethel hadn't left the nest to stretch her legs, Cawly, that old crow, wouldn't have snatched the egg. And if Cawly hadn't snatched the egg, Dylan, who was inside the egg, wouldn't have hatched high in a tree in an eagle's nest. Between his chicken mother coaching him from the ground and his eagle mother screaming at him in the nest, Dylan has a hard time trying to figure out just what he is--a chicken or an eagle.
