Three little Cajun animals plan and host a party for their friends with all their favorite food and music. Their plan takes a devastating turn when a storm comes along, and they are forced to deal with the circumstances. Read along and discover the struggles they face, the attitudes they are challenged to adopt, and the victories they encounter by the positive choices that are made.
Staged in South Louisiana, Rebuilding the Cajun Way is an entertaining children's book for elementary children ages 5 years to 10 years of age, and the story educates children about the Cajun landscape, hospitality, and delicious food while learning the lessons contained within.
Endorsements for Rebuilding the Cajun Way
As a descendant of the first Acadians to arrive in America in search of a new beginning, and a man privileged to serve my country, I treasure what my Cajun heritage and being an American has taught me . . . that our faith in God, our love of family, and our concern for our country and its citizens are what bring true freedom to our hearts. This book offers great hope, and a lesson for the families of this generation.

What a wonderful and refreshing little book! It does a wonderful job of teaching children today not only the love, care and concern we should have for each other, but also the deep faith involved in such actions. I highly recommend this book to all our young children as well as to their parents. Perhaps children of all ages can learn a great deal from this beautiful and inspiring tale.

As a Southern Louisiana native and true Cajun, I can relate to this wonderful children's book. Beautifully illustrated, it portrays the Cajun spirit, not only during a natural disaster, but how we carry on through our daily lives. Our culture's compassion, spirituality, and love for all is authentically portrayed in this refreshing book.

Rebuilding the Cajun Way is a heart-felt, wise, tender children's book that captures the topic of natural disaster and it's effects in a realistic way. In my profession, I have seen so many children lose their precious belongings to the devastation of flooding. This sweet book reminds us of the positive attitudes we need to have while dealing with adversities . . . love one another and always keep the faith!
