As a young boy growing up in North Carolina, Romare Bearden listened to his great-grandmother's Cherokee stories and heard the…
whistle of the train that took his people to the North people who wanted to be free. When Romare and his family, faced with Jim Crow laws, boarded that same train, he watched out the window as the world whizzed by. Later he captured those scenes in a famous painting, Watching the Good Trains Go By. Using that painting as inspiration and creating a text influenced by the blues and jazz that Bearden loved, Jeanne Walker Harvey tells the story of Bearden's children by describing the patchwork of daily southern life that Romare saw out the train's window and the story of his arrival in shimmering New York City. Artists and critics today praise Bearden's collages for their visual metaphors honoring his past, African American culture, and the human experience. 2011. For grades K-3

Mais où vont tous ces bas perdus? Ceux que l'on sait avoir déposés dans la machine à laver, mais qui…
n'en sont jamais ressortis. Sous le choc après avoir découvert un tiroir rempli de bas tout seuls dans leur maison, les jeunes Louis et Madeleine ménent une enquête. Sur leur chemin, ils interrogent leurs amis, leurs enseignants et même un chat. Certains avancent que les bas seraient mangés par le monstre de la sécheuse, d'autres que des gnomes seraient responsables de leur disparition. L'énigme ne sera pas facile à résoudre, mais le duo frère-soeur est prêt à tout pour trouver le coupable. Après le grand succès de La fin des poux?, Orbie nous revient avec un album d'enquête avec l'humour, la fraîcheur et le sens de l'observation qu'on lui connait. Après tout, qui n'a jamais perdu un bas à l'intérieur de sa propre maison sans le retrouver? Mystérieux, n'est-ce pas?
