LeahBergen I‘ve never heard of the tagged book. It sounds good! 5y
merelybookish @LeahBergen Interesting! I wonder if it's better known in French Canada. There's even a Pays de la Sagouine attraction in northern NB (which I've not visited.) 5y
saresmoore Ooh, great choices! I am definitely still in. 5y
