Notes
General Note
This bilingual book, in Anishinaabemowin and English, reveals the cultural and ecological importance of mnoomin. Often mistermed "wild rice" this plant relation has long been sown and harvested to help sustain human and non-human beings. Includes notes from the author and translator.
Description
A child imagines all their relations who made a single mnoomin seed possible. Mayfly, Pike, Muskrat, Eagle and Moose--all had a part to play in bringing the seed into being. And when the seed sprouts? Underwater leaves will shelter young fish, shoots will protect ducklings, stalks will feed larvae, in turn providing food for bats... until finally mnoomin is ready to harvest again.
