Par Mélanie Fortin. 2018
Entassés les uns à côté des autres, la tête penchée pour brouter l'herbe au sol, les moutons du berger ressemblent…
à une véritable couverture de laine, qui comporte cependant un accroc. Une des bêtes, plutôt que de partager le festin de ses congénères, a la tête constamment relevée vers le ciel. Léonard a en effet envie de s'envoler vers des contrées lointaines et de faire des rencontres, l'idée de se voir tondu pour en faire des vêtements de toutes sortes lui donnant des cauchemars. Si tous les autres moutons se moquent de lui et de ses rêves de grandeur, il songe que son souhait est réalisable quand il voit une nuée de montgolfières voler au-dessus du champ. S'entraînant à courir et à monter dans les arbres, il compte bien mettre son plan à exécution, mais le reste du troupeau lui rappelle constamment qu'on n'a jamais vu un mouton dans un ballon.

Par Wendy Graham. 2008
Fourteen-year-old Josie is talkative, impulsive and awkward. She desperately wants to fit in at school, but the kids think it?s…
weird that she?s always counting things. And constantly wiping things clean. And avoiding lifts and packed trains. During visits to the city to see her therapist, Josie becomes besotted with a city busker. She fantasizes about him and travels into town to watch his performances at every opportunity. One day Josie?s life begins to overlap with that of Macka, another school outcast. Macka is quiet, sharp-eyed and takes a while to trust people. A bit like the wedge-tail eagles and other birds of prey he trains after school at the Wildlife Haven. While Josie is besotted with the busker, Macka finds himself besotted with Josie. The two soon realise their lives are following similar paths, which causes a series of misunderstandings and missed opportunities, but also helps each develop a sense of self-worth. Written in a lively and humorous style whilst also invoking compassion and empathy for young people who don't fit in, BALANCING ACT by Wendy Graham is a well-rounded and powerful story of finding and accepting yourself.The Cat Who Went to Heaven
Par Elizabeth Coatsworth, Raoul Vitale. 2008
In ancient Japan, a struggling artist is angered when his housekeeper brings home a tiny white cat he can barely…
afford to feed. But when the village’s head priest commissions a painting of the Buddha for a healthy sum, the artist softens toward the animal he believes has brought him luck. According to legend, the proud and haughty cat was denied the Buddha’s blessing for refusing to accept his teachings and pay him homage. So when the artist, moved by compassion for his pet, includes the cat in his painting, the priest rejects the work and decrees that it must be destroyed. It seems the artist’s life is ruined as well—until he is rewarded for his act of love by a Buddhist miracle. This timeless fable has been a classic since its first publication in 1930, and this beautifully reillustrated edition brings the magic and wonder of the tale to a new generation of readers.The Burgess Bird Book for Children
