Description

Mi'kmaw Waisisk, Mi'kmaw Animals is a dual language, English and Mi'kmaw, written and illustrated by Mi'kmaw artist Alan Syliboy. This 12-page colour board book introduces parents, caregivers, and preschoolers to Mi'kmaw animals in English and Mi'kmaw language. The Mi'kmaw language terms for whale, moose, caribou, crane, turtle, eel, horse, butterfly, and beaver was translated by Lindsay Robert Marshall. This remarkable artist used colour effectively creating stylized animal designs based on Mi'kmaw petroglyphs based on rock art found in the Maritimes. Each term has a pronunciation guide along with the English and Mi'kmaw word. Highly recommended.
