Bon Voyage, Mister Rodriguez

A growing number of curious children discover their villages most enigmatic figure has an unexpectedly beautiful job to do in what The New York Times praises as "bewitching" Every afternoon at four oclock, 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 theyve 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. Author Christiane Duchesne and TD Canadian Childrens Literature Award-winning illustrator Franois Thisdale bring a touching story to life with delicacy and heart.
