PA DAY Author Reading with my coauthor Darcy Whitecrow at Peterborough Public Library
Darcy and I are reading Wiijibibamatoon-Anangoonan (Runs with the Stars), our dual language picture book about the Ojibwe Horse. Darcy is the caretaker of a little herd of Ojibwe Horses, just like the ones in the story. He’ll tell you a little about them. We’ll also teach you how to count and say a few words in Anishinaabemowin (Ojibwe).
