Summary
Misaabe's Stories : A Story of Honesty
Misaabe tells great stories--stories about saving a city from giant green trolls, reading supersonic books with x-ray glasses, and how his dad is a secret agent fighting bad guys, and that's why he can't come to visit. When Misaabe's stories go too far, he must learn how to be honest and authentic with his friends. An Anishinaabe child shares his talent for storytelling and learns to embrace his insecurities in this relatable story. 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.
