"Canada₂s Aboriginal peoples have shaped this country in countless ways. Their story is central to the nation₂s identity ₇ indeed, the word ₃Canada₄ is derived from the Huron-Haudenosaunee word ₃kanata,₄ which means ₃our village.₄ The Kids Book of Aboriginal Peoples in Canada is a balanced, in-depth look at the cultures, struggles and triumphs of Canada₂s first peoples. Exhaustively researched and reviewed by specialists in the field, this groundbreaking book is by far the most comprehensive of its kind. The detailed illustrations, based on museum artifacts, written records of long ago and contemporary scholarship, help bring the traditional ways to life for young readers."--Publisher's website (www.kidscanpress.com).

For children aged 8-12.
