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.
