- Description
Spirit Animals by Cree author Wayne Arthurson is an exploration of Indigenous relationships and stories about animals, containing a blend of Indigenous and scientific knowledge about birds and mammals. The introduction provides a primer on the concept of spirit animals and highlights the diversity of Indigenous teachings beyond the material covered. Each chapter introduces the animal and some scientific facts and perspectives, and then shares a story connected to that animal. Most of these stories are labelled with an Indigenous cultural group, which could be used to spark a research project to find other Indigenous communities’ stories about these animals. Overall, this book could be used to encourage learners to explore teachings from Indigenous cultures across Canada or learn more about the role of animals in Indigenous stories.
