The Great Antonio

By Elise Gravel , illustrated by Elise Gravel , Pamplemousse collection

At twenty, Antonio arrived in Canada by boat. He was huge and very, very strong. He was one meter ninety-three and weighted 225 kilos. The great Antonio liked to show his strength; he pulled crowded buses with his hair and fought Japanese champions. His hair was made in thick braids and when he put metal rods inside, they became antennae that allowed him to communicate with aliens!
