Parents for Bilingual Education New Brunswick (PBENB) is pleased to offer teachers the opportunity to introduce this meaningful, locally rooted book to their students. Born from the courage and generosity of a young New Brunswicker, Dix Aiguilles shares reflections that encourage resilience, kindness, gratitude, and a sense of purpose.

Sean Collins was a brave young boy living with cancer who hoped that the lessons from his journey could help others live more meaningful lives. Author Martin Latulippe brought Sean's reflections to life in this powerful collection of ten "injections" of wisdom, designed to spark thought and conversation.

Written in French and rooted in New Brunswick, this book offers students both linguistic enrichment and deeply impactful themes. It provides an authentic opportunity for French language learners to explore meaningful content while strengthening their comprehension and communication skills.
