Publisher's Synopsis
See below for English description.
Chaque apres-midi, a seize heures, monsieur Rodriguez marche dans les rues du village. Les enfants l'observent, intrigues par cet homme enigmatique a la moustache blanche. Certains disent avoir vu monsieur Rodriguez flotter. D'autres pretendent l'avoir vu jouer du piano sans toucher l'instrument. La verite est plus encore plus merveilleuse que tout ce que les enfants auraient pu imaginer.
L'auteure de renom Christiane Duchesne et l'illustrateur prime Francois Thisdale ont cree une veritable ode a l'imagination.
Every afternoon at four o'clock, Mister Rodriguez steps out of a narrow laneway and strolls through the street. The village children watch him go, ever more curious about the enigmatic old man with the bushy white mustache. Some say they've seen him float above the ground. Others say he played a piano without touching a single key. The truth, though, is more beautiful than any of the children could have imagined.
Renown author Christiane Duchesne and award-winning illustrator Francois Thisdale bring a touching story about the passing of a beloved member of the community to life with delicacy and heart.
Original title: Bon voyage, Mister Rodriguez
