Le premier arbre de Noël

“This sensitive book lives in the heart of the boreal forest. It opens a door into an age-old understanding of the world, both functional and poetic. As constant as the river, it reads like a song and builds a bridge between Innu tradition and the New World. The story and drawings pair as successfully as the author and the illustrator do. Children and grown-ups alike will want to read this tale again and again.”
