Anna explores what it means to be Mohawk, her own identity and the identity of others as she learns to follow the Eagle’s path. She learns how her culture has taught many generations to value honesty, wisdom and courage in their day-to-day lives. Anna also learns about two-spirit people when her best friend tells her that she likes other girls. This revelation leaves her full of questions, and with support from her wise and loving mother, she understands the value in accepting everyone for who they are.

A powerful story to share with children of all ages.

Ce livre est à propos d’une rivière. Est-ce que tu peux trouver une rivière sur la couverture de ce livre ? Que sais-tu à propos des rivières ? 

La plupart des rivières commencent haut dans les montagnes. Quand l’eau descend la colline, elle crée de petits ruisseaux dans les roches et cailloux. Ces ruisseaux s’élargissent et forment des rivières. Parfois, les rivières s’attachent pour créer un fleuve. Plus bas, le terrain s’aplatit et le fleuve se ralentit. Le fleuve termine quand il se déverse dans la mer. 

La région autour d’une rivière est un bon endroit pour les plantes, les animaux et les gens à vivre parce que nous pouvons tous trouver de l’eau et de la nourriture là. Le saumon est une nourriture importante pour beaucoup d’entre nous. 

Est-ce que tu habites près d’une rivière ? Quelles plantes et animaux est-ce que tu as vu là?
