Sometimes I Feel like a Fox

(3) K-3 As explained in the author's note, Anishinaabe people believe in totem animals, clans that exemplify certain traits. Daniel, who is Métis, created this small, unusual book to teach her son about his culture and to encourage others to learn about their own clans. Soft acrylic paintings showing children in stylized animal masks appear opposite four-line poems focusing on each totem's character traits.
