Description

By Terri Mack, Kwakwaka'wakw, Kwakiutl, Da'naxda'xw Awaetlala and illustrated by Bill Helin, Tsimshian, Ts'msysen Tlingit.

Animals Care for Mother Earth comprises six contemporary, interrelated stories and supporting resources for teachers. In the first story, animals cooperate to clean up a polluted pond. In subsequent stories, they care for each other in the aftermath of the pollution problem, demonstrating strength of character and social responsibility. This book can be used in elementary schools to teach—through storytelling—the value of personal strengths and community supports while incorporating Tsimshian language and knowledge into classroom lessons. It also provides many opportunities to extend the learning to other curriculum areas, including science, math, reading, writing, social studies, and art.

Recommended for use with grades 1 to 6 (elementary students).
