NOTES

Ma'iingan loves to sing and her family loves to hear her beautiful voice. Her little sister wants to sing just like Ma'iingan, but Ma'iingan doesn't want her to. As rivalry erupts between the siblings, can Ma'iingan find the humility to share her talent with her sister? In this relatable story, a young Anishinaabe girl learns to put aside her pride and sibling rivalry to share her love of singing with her sister. 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
