These Franco‑American tales are filled with brave princesses, clever underdogs, and mischievous tricksters. They come from a community sometimes described as “a quiet presence,” but their stories are anything but quiet. The authors share the lutin’s playful pranks on farmers, the Jack‑like adventures of Ti‑Jean, Pierre’s modern‑day chainsaw heroics, a princess who outsmarts a wicked witch, and family tales passed lovingly from one generation to the next.
