Le Rouge is soon discovered because he can't contain his excitement--mon dieu he is so enthusiastic. The smells! The vistas! The comradery! \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eThe voyageurs are not particularly happy to have him, especially because Le Rouge rides, but he does not paddle. He eats, but he does not cook. He doesn't even carry anything on portages--sometimes it is he who has to be carried. He also has a terrible singing voice. What kind of voyageur is that? \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eWhen they finally arrive at the trading post Le Rouge is in for a terrible shock--the voyageurs have traveled all those miles to collect beaver pelts. With the help of Monique, a smart and sweet flying squirrel, Le Rouge organizes his fur-bearing friends of the forest to ambush the men and try and convince them to quit being voyageurs. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eWritten by a Newbery honor author, the book has over 20 black-and-white illustrations.\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eMargi Preus is a New York Times bestselling author of several books for young readers, including the Newbery Honor book \u003ci\u003eHeart of a Samurai\u003c\/i\u003e.
