CONTE CAJUN: L'Histoire de Télésphore et de 'Tit Edvard is a story for children of all ages. During a hurricane in Louisiana, a turtle meets a very small crawfish lost and abandonned in the storm. Filled with compassion for the little crawfish, the turtle, Télésphore, promises to find the claw which the crawfish has lost in the storm. Télésphore names his little friend 'Tit Edvard and together they set off on a great adventure, meeting a cast of outrageous characters along the way. L'Histoire de Télésphore et de 'Tit Edvard is a fable in the tradition of Hans Christian Anderson and the Brothers Grimm. Zachary wrote it for his daughter, Sarah, when she was ten years old. Fifteen years later, Sarah found the manuscript hidden in a drawer. At once she decided to do the illustrations. It's a story full of courage, laughter and love.
