Breaux Bridge — St. Martinville native, educator, and author Andrea Brew Harrison is thrilled to announce the release of her third children’s picture book, Belle of the Boil, published by Mascot Kids and officially launching on April 7.
To celebrate the occasion, a book launch and signing event will be held on Saturday, April 11 at 10:00 a.m. at the Breaux Bridge Library, located at 205 N. Main St. The event is free to the public.
Belle of the Boil is a vibrant “ode to Louisiana” that follows Belle, a young girl embarking on a sensory journey down Highway 31 to her very first crawfish boil. The story immerses readers in the spicy aromas, zydeco rhythms, and joyful community spirit that make South Louisiana unique. Targeted at children ages 3–8, the picture book celebrates the cherished South Louisiana tradition of gathering around newspapercovered tables to enjoy good food, laughter, and family time.
