Editorial Reviews

From School Library Journal

Kindergarten-Grade 4 In this version of the story, Goldilocks is called Jolie Blonde (pretty blonde), and the Three Bears are actually three humans the Heberts (pronounced AY-bair)who live on the bayou. Mama Hebert makes gumbo that is left to cool while the family goes for a pirogue (boat) ride, with the predictable results. The text is sprinkled with Cajun expressions that are explained at the bottom of each page. First published with black-and-white illustrations (Blue Heron, 1993; o.p.), this edition is a big improvement, with Sopers colorful drawings in glowing pastels. The appended gumbo recipe is easy enough for any jolie blonde. Of especial interest to Louisiana libraries, this story can also serve as additional material for large collections. It will work well as a one-on-one lesson on Cajun-French words or as a group read-aloud sharing of a unique bit of culture.Judith Constantinides, East Baton Rouge Parish Main Library, LA

5.0 out of 5 stars Jolie Blonde, April 29, 2009
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.
