Languedoc, Claudette: - Claudette was born and raised in Toronto, Canada. In 1959, when she was seven, two Anishinabek brothers joined her family, part of the 60's scoop. With their arrival, stories of tricksters and turtles joined Dr. Suess at bedtime, and her world grew wider. As an adult she spent a good part of her life overseas, teaching in International schools and raising children, in countries as diverse as Kenya and Ecuador. With each new move her world grew wider still. Claudette is now settled in Ottawa, Canada and finally understands that it doesn't matter where you live or who you live with, the world is infinitely wide.
