NORMAN CROSSES CANADA... (and Miss Elden Drives)

Carson Crosses Canada by Linda Bailey 


NORMAN: Summer vacation is finally here! Time for our cross Canada road trip!
MISS ELDEN: Buckle up your seatbelt Norm, we've got a long trip ahead of us.
NORMAN: First let's stop at the gas station and get some snacks, I'm already hungry.

Hi boys and girls!  Well, this is it - our final library dog blog for this school year. Norman and I have been working so hard on it we have decided to take a vacation. We are going to drive across Canada and see all of the beautiful provinces in our great country.  Norman already knows all of the provinces of Canada because we have read today's story together a lot. It is called Carson Crosses Canada and it is written by the same author as all of those hilarious Stanley the dog stories that we love so much, Linda Bailey.  In this story, an old lady named Annie, and her dog Carson, drive across Canada in their car to go see Annie's sister. It is a great story and teachers you something special about each province in Canada. 
Norman has already got a few pit stops planned on our Google Maps route - he wants to see dinosaur fossils in Drumheller, Alberta, go up the CN Tower in Toronto, Ontario, and stop for a smoked meat sandwich in Montreal, Quebec...and he also wants to try some yummy local treats like maple syrup, poutine, and fish and chips along the way 😄

Norman and I hope you have enjoyed looking at our library blog - you can always come back and listen to the stories again in the summer time if you'd like! 

Have a great Canada Day and a fun, safe and reading-filled summer!
