Description
Sophie is going to spend the weekend with her dad. She is determined to take care of all the tasks so that he can get a good rest. From his hammock, Dad worries about Sophie as she does the work and problems multiply: the rubbish bags are too heavy, the bird feeder is too high, Sophie can't turn off the hose... Fortunately, a picnic awaits them.
About the authors
Nicole Poirier is from Chéticamp, Nova Scotia, and resides in New Brunswick. Forever engaged with children, these stories draw from her experiences as a kindergarten teacher, a counsellor and a mother. She also created the character of Nico who tells stories and hosts meetings with children. Congé pour Sophie is her third book with Bouton d?or Acadie and is in some ways a reply to Congé pour maman.
From Dieppe, New-Brunswick, Isabelle Léger is passionate about illustration. She attended the visual arts program of the University of Moncton, then graduated with a diploma in graphic design at the Collège Communautaire du Nouveau-Brunswick — campus de Dieppe. She designs many projects for Bouton d'or Acadie, and she was noticed for her funny and touching style in her first professional publication, Congé pour maman (2018).
