- Description
- en Lucille West, 80, talks with Kim Chase in French and English about growing up on farms in Canada and in North Troy, Vermont. In French she talks with Kim about various French songs. In English Lucille relates how her family came to move to Vermont when she was 10, and the adjustments she had to make in learning new ways and a new language, English. She also talks about celebrating Christmas in Vermont, which her family had never done before in Canada, home health remedies, foods eaten, how her mother became blind when Lucille was only 4, and other family stories. Lucille and Kim switch between French and English but there is enough in English for the non-French speaker to understand.
