Mary Alice Fontenot is best known as the children's author on Cajun culture. She created the famous wetland characters of Clovis Crawfish and his friends more than thirty years ago-and they still find exciting new adventures. Mardi Gras in the Country by Mary Alice Fontenot Estimated delivery 3-12 business days Format Hardcover Condition Brand New Description When Mardi Gras hits Cajun Country, the bayou revelers trade in their lavish floats for horses. And rather than throwing baubles and toys, the maskers amuse the families with their antics and dances. These are the traditions of le courir du Mardi Gras and this year Marianne and Claude get to witness them. Publisher Description ACCELERATED READER PROGRAM SELECTION Mardi Gras in New Orleans is long parades and grand balls. But in the country, Mardi Gras is entirely different. For the first time, young Marianne and Claude will get to see le courir du Mardi Gras, or &quot;The Run,&quot; as they stay at their grandmother&#039;s farm. They wait in anticipation on Maw-Maw&#039;s porch for the time when the masked horsemen will ride through the countryside, bringing excitement and mystery with their traditional wild antics. In Mardi Gras in the Country, children are introduced to the Mardi Gras practiced in the bayous, farmlands, and rural areas of Cajun Country. After a long day filled with the new sights and sounds of a different part of Louisiana tradition, we find our young heroes dozing and dreaming of future Mardi Gras.
