My Head in the Clouds Read-Along

by Danielle Chaperon, illustrated by Josée Bisaillon, translated by Sophie B. Watson, read by Heather Gould

tagged: travel, stories in verse
Description

Travel the world with an intrepid explorer who's adventurous, brave and just a little bit forgetful.

She searches for ancient loot but loses her swimsuit! Goes to beautiful places and misplaces three suitcases! From Canada to Nepal to Egypt and beyond, our narrator circles the globe while abandoning her possessions. She even loses her mother, briefly, in the desert.

The cadence and rhyme, accented by quirky collage-style art, will propel readers along through this exciting excursion, ultimately landing on a fact page dedicated to the places you've just read about. Join us on our journey around the world.

About the Authors

Danielle Chaperon

Enfant, Danielle Chaperon aimait déjà écrire et jouer des pièces de théâtre avec sa joyeuse bande de voisins voisines. Elle a donc étudié en littérature à l’Université Laval à Québec, puis en éducation à l’Université d’Ottawa. Après de nombreuses années d’enseignement en Ontario et au Québec, elle a commencé à écrire des livres jeunesse en 2013 et n’a pas l’intention d’arrêter de sitôt.


Josée Bisaillon

As a young girl, Josée loved drawing cats and houses. She really enjoyed school and always returned home full of stories to tell (and, of course, to draw!). She liked being in the classroom so much that she pursued her education all the way to university, where she studied graphic design. It was there that she fell in love with the occupation of illustrator. Josée lives just outside of Montreal with her spouse, three small chickens, one hairless cat and many characters she has created.

Sophie B. Watson is an award-winning author, translator and editor. Since studying French and English literature at the University of Alberta, Sophie has worked in the book publishing industry as a writer, editor, translator and as a bilingual editor for Les Éditions Duval. Over the years she has worked in educational, literary, trade and academic publishing. As a freelance writer Sophie has had many articles published in Canadian and Irish publications and her novel Cadillac Couches received excellent reviews.


Heather Gould is an entrepreneur, artist and voice actor from Victoria, British Columbia.

— CM: Canadian Review of Materials

“A lovely tale of adventure, mystery, and, of course, forgetfulness, it’s destined to give you the travel bug.”

— Montreal Review of Books

“Imagination and daydreaming are the keys to unlocking this around the world trip. Written in prose, with exceptional illustrations, only the reader's imagination can be better than this book.”
