(4) 4-6 Land Is Our Storybook series. Photographs by Tessa Macintosh. Taniton is a contemporary leader of the Dene people, living in Canada's Northwest Territories. This busily composed photo essay offers a look at modern-day First Nation life but does not focus on children. Although this departure may limit interest and the prose is stiff, the information about traditions, political actions, and the land itself is valuable. Instructions for making a traditional drum are appended. Timeline. Glos.
