nipehon / I Wait (Hardback)

This is a companion volume to Niwechihaw / I Help, which is in its fifth printing. It also won the AGHE Book Award for Best Children's Literature on Aging. There is a universality to this story about having to wait for one another. The very simple, short story, well supported by illustration, makes this an excellent book for children learning to read. The Cree and English text appear in different colours to help differentiate between the two. The text in Cree and English contributes to the effort to keep indigenous languages alive. Curriculum connections to Indigenous languages and Language arts / reading; Social studies / heritage and identities, people and environments.
