Book
As long as the rivers flow / Larry Loyie with Constance Brissenden ; illustrations by Heather D. Holmlund.
This affectionate memoir is a welcome and discussion-provoking addition to the growing body of native literature for children. Set in 1944, it recreates the summer Lawrence Loyie was ten years old, the last summer he spent with his Cree family before a Canadian government program forced him to attend residential school....a valuable curriculum resource and a good read.
Easy reader.
