Song on the Wind
by Caroline Everson
Age: Preschool-1st grade
Culture: Indigenous Canadian (unidentified in story--illustrator is of Indigenous ancestry: Huron, Migmag, and Algonquin)
Family: Intergenerational
Across time, children ask their family members to tell them stories as they drift off to sleep. The phrase "Mama/Papa told it to me, and I'll tell it to you/And the wind might catch it again" connects three stories that tell pastoral tales of sleek salmon, hunting polar bears, and sparkling fires. A beautiful celebration of family snuggles at bedtime and the threads of storytelling throughout generations.
