- Synopsis
- Amik loves going to school, but when he shares this with his grandfather, he finds out Moshoom attended residential school. At Moshoom&’s school, students were forbidden from speaking their language. It sounds very different from Amik's school, so Amik has an idea…In this heartwarming story, an Anishinaabe child shows his grandfather how his school celebrates the culture that residential schools tried to erase. A pronunciation guide for the Anishnaabemowin words can be found at the back of the book.Rich in culture and grounded in traditional knowledge, Katherena Vermette&’s The Seven Teachings Stories series features themes of love, wisdom, humility, courage, respect, honesty, and truth. Contemporary Indigenous children explore the Seven Teachings of the Anishinaabe through stories of home and family that will look familiar to all young readers in these books for ages 3–5.
