"Be proud of where you come from! Be thankful for what's on your plate. The grass always seems greener in another part of the state!" For Chicory the Creole mouse, life in New Orleans is all that and a block of cheese. She would never dream of living anywhere else...until she falls asleep in a picnic basket and wakes up in the swamps of southwest Louisiana! There she meets a Cajun field mouse named Roux, who shows Chicory that everything from the food to Mardi Gras--not to mention the predators--is different in Cajun Country. Chicory decides to take Roux back to the French Quarter for a taste of city life, but will these two mice just have to agree to disagree? This retelling of Aesop's classic fable celebrates the differences of Creole and Cajun cultures with delightful illustrations, clever storytelling, and a wealth of Southern charm. Along the way, Chicory and Roux might learn that, sometimes, where you are is exactly where you're supposed to be! Todd-Michael St. Pierre is the author of several cookbooks and children's books rooted in Southern themes. His books have been featured in publications such as the San Francisco Chronicle and Southern Living magazine. St. Pierre has served as a judge for the Reading Rainbow Young Writers and Illustrators Contest and has developed recipes for Cooking Light magazine. An avid Cajun and Creole cook, dedicated gardener, lifelong cat lover, and proud Louisianian, St. Pierre considers himself part Creole mouse and part Cajun mouse. Lee Brandt Randall graduated from Louisiana State University with a bachelor of fine arts in printmaking. She continued to nurture this passion by working in freelance graphic design, film animation, and book illustration, in addition to teaching private art lessons for children and adults. A member of the Society of Children's Book Writers and Illustrators, Randall continues to teach and in her spare time enjoys jazz, cooking, and puppet making.
