Qui est le plus fort? Text by Barry Jean Ancelet. Illustrated by Joël Boudreau. A co-edition by Bouton d’or Acadie and Les Éditions Tintamarre.

    Just because someone’s little doesn’t mean they aren’t… the strongest! This traditional Cajun fable sparkles with the same springtime liveliness as it did when first recorded in 1973 by Barry Jean Ancelet of Lafayette, Louisiana.
     After a first edition in 1999 by Bouton d’or Acadie, the illustrator Joël Boudreau went back to the drawing table with extraordinary results! The story is superbly accompanied by a CD of Barry Ancelet reciting this light-hearted tongue-twisting tour de force to the lively rhythms of Glen Deveau’s percussion.
     So, who is the strongest: the author, the musician or the illustrator? Or maybe it’s you, the reader, if you can manage to recite “Qui est le plus fort” by heart without bursting into laughter!
