Short description:

Acclaimed novelist Cathie Pelletier, descended from Acadians herself, adapts the story of Evangeline and the expulsion of the Acadians and retells it in novel form for middle readers. The prose retelling makes the story more accessible, and teachable, for younger readers.

Long description:

Henry Wadsworth Longfellow's epic poem "Evangeline: A Tale of Acadie" vividly tells the story of an Acadian girl as she searches for her lost love Gabriel amid the expulsion of the Acadians from maritime Canada and Maine.

Now, acclaimed novelist Cathie Pelletier, descended from Acadians herself, adapts the story and retells it in novel form for middle readers. The prose retelling makes the story more accessible, and teachable, for younger readers.

At a time when immigration and migration are at the forefront of news cycles, the historic displacement of the Acadians deserves a deeper look.
