Jolie Blonde
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 15 years ago
This was the second Sheila Hebert Collins Cajun Tales book in my collection. I love it. I have purchased all of her Cajun fairytales in an effort to help me learn as much as I can about my culture and heritage. I set out to learn how to speak Cajun French as my mother is Cajun and she has lost her language. Here in Washington State it is a little difficult to find people of Cajun tongue. Thank goodness for these books! I wish there were more as I've collected every single one of them. I love them all.
