Édition du remue-ménage
Ulysse et
Alice
(French only)
Ulysse et
Alice, c’est une histoire à raconter aux enfants,
pour les faire rire et pour les faire réfléchir.
Mais c’est aussi, pour leur montrer que même si la
richesse du monde tient à sa diversité, le quotidien
de plusieurs familles, bien que différentes, se ressemble
beaucoup. Avec ce livre, les parents et aussi les enseignantes
et les enseignants disposent maintenant d’un outil précieux
pour lutter contre les préjugés et la discrimination
dont sont encore souvent victimes les femmes lesbiennes et leurs
enfants dans la société québécoise.
