Description
The Métis Alphabet Colouring Book is an adaptation of Joseph Jean Fauchon’s popular children’s book of the same name. With enhanced cultural content, this colouring book highlights historical figures, significant events, places of interest and other aspects of Métis identity to take youthful readers beyond the alphabet to explore the richness of Métis history and culture. George Gingras’s images—which are meant to be coloured and are inspired by illustrations and photos—provide an engaging complement to the text. The Métis Alphabet Colouring Book strengthens Métis pride and identity while providing young readers with an informative reference book about the essence of being Métis. Includes Michif translations by Norman Fleury.
