Book Synopsis
Learn about the rhythms of the seasons with Joshua in this captivating read-aloud story for ages 5 to 7.
Joshua loves being on the land. When the weather is warm, Joshua and his dad gather mint from the shores of Animbiigoo Zaagi'igan Anishinaabek (Lake Nipigon First Nation) in northeastern Ontario. But when will that be? It's not when the leaves are changing colour. It's not when the snow falls from the sky. It's not when the flowers are budding. When is it time to gather mint from the land?
In the back of the book, find a glossary and pronunciation guide for the Swampy Cree and Anishinaabemowin words featured throughout the story.
