These seven tales are the traditional teaching stories of Nenapohs, the Saulteaux culture hero and trickster. Oral in origin, they have been passed on through generations by the traditional teachers, the Elders.

For the first time, they are published and made available in Nahkawewin or Saulteaux, the westernmost dialect of the Ojibwe language.

Each story is illustrated and is presented in both Standard Roman Orthography and syllabics, with English translation. The book also includes a pronunciation guide and a Saulteaux-to-English glossary.

Industry Reviews

"The stories are wonderful, the art just melts my heart, and the whole design and execution is exquisite. This is what I think we should be doing as we make claims to be documentarians, these are the things that really matter. I sincerely hope you guys will produce many, many volumes in this spirit." -Dr. Randolph Valentine
