The Gumbo Gators

“Whimsical artist Paul Schexnayder takes us on a delightful road trip through Louisiana with two festive gators.

Paul Schexnayder has a great talent for combining fun language and enchanting, colorful illustrations.” —Lorraine Kingston, Books Along the Teche Meet Fran and Van Harahan! This spicy alligator couple travels the state of Louisiana, makin’ groceries for a gumbo. In their boat, they pick up the rice in Crowley, sausage in Lafayette, and wild game in Shreveport and Monroe.
