[CALIBK12] Board book by First Nations author

[Debbie Reese]

Hello,

Board books about American Indians are extremely 
rare, so, it is very cool to learn of a new one. 
This one is A WELCOME SONG FOR BABY: A LULLABY FOR NEWBORNS.

It is by Dogrib (First Nations) author, Richard 
Van Camp. Published by Orca, but on back order 
with them...  You can get it, though from 
Oyate.  There's a review of it at my blog.

I also added a link to an interview with Gayle 
Ross, co-author of THE STORY OF THE MILKY WAY: A CHEROKEE TALE.
