I thought this book was cute and informative. The book's plot is around creating a float for a Mardi Gras parade. Throughout the book, Frenchy, the pelican visits different cities in Louisiana to get ideas and parts for her float. She visits Lafayette for the base, Alexandria for some good Cajun cooking, Natchitoches for a model of a plantation, and the Tenses River National Wildlife Refuge for some good ole jazz music. They saw riverboats on the Mississippi River and finally won best float in the parade. Throughout the book, the margins had fun facts about Louisiana like the state dog, amphibian, bird, and tree. It also listed facts about when the city was founded and defined some words like crawfish and cajun culture. It was more like a fact book written in the form of a story. It would be great for kids because there were maps and cute illustrations and a "Louisiana at a Glance" page that would be great for writing reports. ( )

Non fiction picture book, fact and fable. This story follows the creativity of Frenchy the pelican as he must enlist all his friends to help build a float to be judged at Mardi Gras. Each one of the state emblems are visited as they add an idea for the float. A pelican, a frog, a crawfish, a bear, a cypress tree, a honey bee and a Catahoula leopard dog are just a few of his friends. With each fictional excerpt, there is a non fiction bar on the side of the page allowing for further education on the state representative presented. On page 11, an idea for a cooking activity is presented. This book would have many avenues for classroom exploration and would lend itself well to extracurricular activities. On the last page a quiz is presented to match the pictures of the state emblems to the facts or questions. Louisiana culture is presented in a fun exploratory manner that I think kids would love. A good book to read around Mardi Gras time to first and second graders. ( )
