The 20-page length is perfect for bedtime—we finished it in one sitting and my kid asked to start again immediately. Cody’s story feels real and respectful, and the French is simple enough for early learners without dumbing it down.

My daughter is seven and loves the illustrations of Cody's community—the page with the canoe and the river really pulled her in. The text is simple enough for her to read aloud with a little help, which makes it a nice shared activity. We've already read it three times since it arrived.

The illustrations by Brigitte Gobeil are so warm and inviting, and the 20-page length is perfect for a bedtime read with my kid. It’s a lovely way to introduce French vocabulary while learning about Cody’s Indigenous heritage.
