Book Description
for On the Road Again! by Marie-Louise Gay and David Homel
From The United States Board on Books for Young People (USBBY)
This hilarious sequel to Travels with My Family is narrated by Charlie, a young boy whose adventuresome parents decide to move the family to a small French village for the year. Through Charlie’s eyes, we see the differences between his big-city life in Montreal and the rural life he experiences, right down to the annual bull run through the village streets. Initially reluctant to leave Montreal, Charlie makes fast friends and comes to love his new home; before he knows it, it’s time to return to Montreal . ss
