The First Jambalaya

Richeleaux, the raccoon, wants nothing more than to play his fiddle for a real audience, so he decides to have a jamboree. And

what's a party without food? While he busily prepares a delicious meal, Antoine, the alligator, hurries off to invite their friends. Soon,

everyone in the Atchafalaya Swamp is excited for a fun-filled fais-do-do. When an unexpected rainstorm threatens to ruin the party

before it even starts, Richelieu's friends step in and save the day.

Set in the steamy bayous of the deep American south, this charming fairy tale full of friendship and hospitality will warm

your heart and get your taste buds dancing. It includes recipes for Lip Smackin' Jambalaya, Red Beans & Rice, and Sweet Praline

Candy so you can plan a fais-do-do of your very own
