If You're Not from the Prairie HC by Bouchard, David

If You're Not From the Prairie is the perfect picture book for those who grew up in the Canadian Prairies or wish they did. Combing simple poetic verse with the nostalgic paintings by Henry Ripplinger, Métis author David Bouchard's 1994 volume is valuable for teachers looking for examples of poetry, mentor texts, or adults who will appreciate the attractive images of the carefree Prairies boy who becomes the work worn farmer.
