| The Sharing Circle |
| Stories about First Nations Culture |
| Text by Theresa Meuse-Dallien Illustrated by Arthur Stevens |
Matthew loves to play games with his friends and share his
toys with them. But most of all he loves to share the special
treasures that remind him of his First Nations culture.
Perhaps his favourite treasure is the medicine pouch that
his grandfather made especially for him. This is where he
keeps many of his other treasures, including the sacred
herbs his mother gave him. Matthew uses the herbs to
remind him to be grateful for everything that nature gives
us. Another special gift is the eagle feather from his father.
Matthew knows that the eagle is a symbol of the spiritual
strength of his culture. But there is one other gift that has a
special place in Matthew's heart. It is the dream catcher
that Matthew gave to his friend Dustin to help him not have
bad dreams.
The Sharing Circle is a collection of seven stories about
First Nations culture and spiritual practices: The Eagle
Feather, The Dream Catcher, The Sacred Herbs, The
Talking Circle, The Medicine Wheel, The Drum, and The
Medicine Pouch. Researched and written by Mi'kmaw
children's author Theresa Meuse-Dallien, and beautifully
illustrated by Mi'kmaw artist Arthur Stevens, this book will
engage and inform children of all ages.
