3. Book Club: Les Contes du Chat Perché

Free

$5

Join us for a read-along book club of Marcel Aymé's Les Contes du Chat Perché. This will be our second meeting - however since these short stories are independent from each other, you do not need to have participated in the first book club to join us. We invite you to read "Les boîtes de peinture" and "Le loup" and then to come ready to discuss online on the 23rd of December at 4:30PM.

This book club is for those who regularly read en français and for those who are reading in French for the first time!
