Synopsis
The entire village of Châeticamp, Nova Scotia, looks forward to the arrival of Tante Marie's great-great-niece, seven-year-old Claire, but no one succeeds in making friends with the quiet little girl until Tante Marie goes back to hooking a rug and Claire decides to investigate.

Review
“French words and phrases scattered throughout the text contribute to the authenticity of the setting of the story. Rajka Kupesic's beautiful paintings combine a naive style with fine detail to effectively depict the story's historical setting . . . Highly recommended.” (Canadian Book Review Annual) “Oil on linen folk art paintings glow from the pages of this book . . . A beautifully composed book.” (The Globe and Mail)
