The dream catcher [videorecording] / by Reality Media.; Visual Education Centre.;
The Anishinaabe people of Manitoulin Island, known by others as the Ojibwe, Odawa and Potawatomi have a rich culture of storytelling. The Anishinaabe history and tradition has been passed down from generation to generation by respected and cherished elders who shared the stories they learned from their elders. The Anishinaabe people are master storytellers and believe in sharing these ancient and beautiful stories about their culture and history. We are honoured to share this long-established tradition with you and invite you to watch, listen and read along with James Panamick as he shares an Anishinaabe story about how his people were given the gift and teaching of the Dream Catcher. This beautiful story about living with Mother Nature and respect for all is as relevant today as it has ever been. Most people have seen a dream catcher.

The barren grounds / by Robertson, David,1977-;
"Morgan and Eli, two Indigenous children forced away from their families and communities, are brought together in a foster home in Winnipeg, Manitoba. They each feel disconnected, from their culture and each other, and struggle to fit in at school and at their new home -- until they find a secret place, walled off in an unfinished attic bedroom. A portal opens to another reality, Askí, bringing them onto frozen, barren grounds, where they meet Ochek (Fisher). The only hunter supporting his starving community, Misewa, Ochek welcomes the human children, teaching them traditional ways to survive. But as the need for food becomes desperate, they embark on a dangerous mission. Accompanied by Arik, a sassy Squirrel they catch stealing from the trapline, they try to save Misewa before the icy grip of winter freezes everything--including them".--Page [2] of cover.LSC

The Great Bear / by Robertson, David,1977-;
"In this second book in the Narnia-inspired Indigenous middle-grade fantasy series, Eli and Morgan travel back to Misewa, only to realize they've travelled back farther than expected. At school, Eli is being bullied, and while he tries to hide what's happening to him from Morgan, she knows something is wrong. Morgan herself is also in turmoil when she is given the phone number of her birth mother, and she struggles to know what to do with it. They turn to the place where they know they can learn the most, and make the journey back to the village to visit their anthropomorphic teachers. But things are different than they remember. It's summer, which is to be expected after what they accomplished on their last visit, but it's more than that. Then, they see Fisher as a boy, and realize that they've visited the past. What's more, the village is once again in peril."--From publisher.LSC
