HISTORY
Bouchard, David

The Secret of Your Name / Kiimooch ka shinikashooyen

(4) K-3 Illustrated by Dennis J. Weber. In poetic bilingual text (English and Michif), Bouchard celebrates the heritage of the Métis people. Though the writing is lyrical, the events are difficult to follow without prior knowledge; appended text about "People, Places and Events" is somewhat helpful. Some of the paintings are striking; others are stiffly posed. A CD of the story accompanied by a Métis fiddler is included.
