"These easy-to-read biographies portray the lives of famous Canadians. Michaëlle Jean came to Canada as a refugee and became Governor General. World-famous Terry Fox raised millions of dollars for cancer research with his run, Marathon of Hope. Emily Carr's powerful landscape paintings are recognized internationally. Norman Bethune devoted his working life in medicine to helping others, gaining special distinction in China. Lucy Maud Montgomery, the creator of Anne of Green Gables and author of more than 20 books, is a household name the world over. Poundmaker was a Plains Cree chief known as a peacemaker and defender of his people. Now students can listen to the audio while reading their favourite biography. The clear and expressive audio reading supports students in reading fluently and independently. The narrators read each book at a slow pace, which helps students to establish the link between spoken and written words. A subtle audio signal alerts students to turn the page. Set includes audio CD's and the following titles: Michaelle Jean, Terry Fox, Norman Bethune, Lucy Maud Montgomery, Poundmaker and Emily Carr."--From publisher.
