Le Petit Prince is quoted several times as Vigan draws to our attention the story of the fox and the prince. An unlikely pair, but close friends nonetheless because each is unique to the other. Is it not the same with No and Lou? The title of the novel, No et Moi, mirrors No's claim that "on est ensemble, hein, Lou, en est ensemble." Yet their bond is cruelly challenged. I wanted to thank every single one of you who bought my resources on No et moi and who left me amazing comments which motivate me to continue what I am doing. So, to thank you, I put another FREE resource that I created on the historical context as a thank you for your support. Enjoy and I hope it is useful to you and your class. When faced with an upcoming presentation for her social and economic sciences class, our young yet fiercely intelligent protagonist Lou decides to interview No, a homeless girl - or, as the French call it: une femme sans domicile fixé (SDF) - to discover what life on the streets entails.

Daphne de Vigan's No et Moi is a moving novel because it captures that golden space of time in childhood during which a guileless child, curious and optimistic, recognizes all that is flawed with the world and tries to change it.An essay sample with a range of activities and questions to help student understand how to write an essay and what to look for in the mark scheme Centre National du Cinéma et de l’image animée (CNC), Procirep, Banque Postale Image 3, France Télévisions, Soficinéma 6, Orange Cinéma Séries Vocabulary sheets for chapters 1 to 20 with a link to the Quizlet course (I will soon add the other chapters too)

Lou, a good student at school, is quite concerned about the homeless people she encounters all over Paris. She loves hanging out in the Gare Austerlitz, where she observes an enigmatic young woman who attracts her attention. She has written essays for her class, and with the encouragement of her Lycee teacher she decides to explore a world that is alien to her. Coming from a household in which her mother suffers from depression, getting to know Nora, who prefers to be called "No" presents a challenge for this middle class girl.As it turns out, No, is at first flattered and confused by Lou, a girl so different from her, a good source for getting a drink, or a meal when she is down and out. Lou pleads with her parents to let her friend move with them. The parents are reluctant, at first, but decide to go along. Lou secretly watches Lucas, a classmate, who is popular with girls. He is a the product of divorced parents living alone in a huge apartment. With the arrival of No, Lucas takes an interest in Lou.

Bound on leaving and finding the life she deserves, No makes grand plans to leave for Ireland where her lover Loïc supposedly waits, and invites Lou to come along. Finally, however, we find out that Loïc was never there. Eventually, it is only No who quietly slips away, leaving No behind, restoring both of them to their 'proper' places and usual lives. It is a heartbreaking ending that throws into light the grand themes of the novel.
