"San Souci uses enough Cajun seasoning to enliven the retelling." -Booklist "Will put readers and listeners in stitches." -Kirkus Reviews "Definitely worth consideration for most collections." -School Library Journal Down in the bayou country of Louisiana live six friends who love to go fishing in their pirogues. But-ma foi-these fishermen, they are very foolish fellows. Peppered with Cajun language as spicy as gumbo, this classic folktale is retold by award-winning storyteller Robert D. San Souci. The antics and misunderstandings of Jules, Jacques, Jean, Ti-Paul, Philippe, and Pierre are full of good humor and irresistible fun.
