Autumn Peltier, water warrior / by Lindstrom, Carole,1964-; George, Bridget,1994-;
Includes bibliographical references.The seventh generation is creating A sea of change. It was a soft voice, at first. Like a ripple. But with practice it grew louder. Indigenous women have always worked tirelessly to protect our water -- keeping it pure and clean for the generations to come. Yet there was a time when their voices and teachings were nearly drowned out, leaving entire communities and environments in danger and without clean water. But then came Anishinaabe elder Grandma Josephine and her great niece, Autumn Peltier. Featuring a foreword from water advocate and Indigenous Rights Activist Autumn Peltier herself, this picture book from Carole Lindstrom gives voice to the water and asks young readers to join the tidal wave of change.
