Overview
Au rythme des saisons et des chansons, petit ourson deviendra grand !
À moi le froid, je n’ai pas peur! Un petit ours ignore les conseils de ses parents et choisit de passer l’hiver loin de sa tanière. Libre, il fait la fête avec les oiseaux, les renards et les chevreuils. Mais le printemps est bien loin! Rempli d’illustrations vivantes et raffinées, le livre est un hommage à la grande forêt québécoise, à ses arbres et à ses animaux. Les chansons créées spécialement pour accompagner le conte suivent les aventures de l’ourson et de ses amis sur des airs circassiens, traditionnels ou jazz.
Le disque comprend la narration du conte et 10 chansons.
A beloved French–Canadian songwriter tells the story of an adventurous young bear
A small bear, ignoring the advice of his parents, chooses to spend the winter away from the family’s den. As his journey begins and before the cold sets in, the bear lives a life of ease, singing and dancing with his new friends the birds, the foxes, and deer. But the spring is still far away and the bear soon discovers why the rest of his family hibernates for winter. The story by celebrated author-songwriter Félix Leclerc is accompanied by an audio CD with 10 songs from the award-winning singer-songwriter Edgar Bori.
