Flying Canoe, Danger Before Dawn
Autor Pat Lamondin Skene Ilustrat de Emily Côtéen Limba Engleză Paperback – 18 mai 2027 – vârsta până la 8 ani
They sneak downstairs to find their mémér's decorative golden canoe, and whisper the magic words to make it fly. To their surprise, the canoe grows in size, and suddenly they're being flown through the sky--back to 1892!
In a bumpy crash landing, the siblings lose track of their magic canoe and find themselves trapped in the past. But they soon meet Lou and his sister Becca, two Métis children who help them navigate river rapids, forest trails and the dangers of the wilderness. As they search for the missing canoe, the children learn new things about about Métis culture and ultimately discover that they had the keys to return home all along--kindness, courage and working together.
Praise for Pat Lamondin Skene:

This is a tender, culturally rich story that is a touching celebration of heritage, honesty, and family that will inspire young readers to cherish their roots." -- School Library Journal (SLJ), starred review

Notă biografică

She is a Métis author of several books for children, including the picture book Lights along the River and the Orca Echoes titles One Beaded Earring, What a Hippopota-Mess!, Rhyme Stones and Monster Lunch. Most of Pat's inspiration comes from her many travels and memories of her childhood growing up in a Métis community on the Magnetawan River. Pat keeps her imagination fed and watered in Oakville, Ontario.
