Marceau is a New York City taxi driver who, in order to escape from
his less than exciting existence, imagines himself participating in
amazing, visual adventures which he relates to a regular fare whom he
picks up each day for his ride to and from his office.
He uses
every-day, adult language, the goal being to improve the reader's word
recognition and vocabulary. An easy and convenient glossary is included
where simple definitions appear just to the right of the new words.
Collaborators
in Marceau's quest to "do good" include the animals, birds and all
other living (or not) creatures, the clouds, the sun, the wind and
anything else that his fertile mind can imagine.
And it is all in rhyme.
The good guys always win, the bad guys always lose, and nobody ever gets hurt.
