Canadian Children's Book Centre Our Choice, 2009 BolognaRagazzi Award Mention book, 2010 What the Bologna jury said: |The joyful yet complex style of Jim Poitras is the vehicle for an enjoyable lesson in cultural anthropology. The clear contours of the foreground figures dialogue effortlessly with the landscapes in the background whose colourful, complex and material quality is rendered almost tangible. This novel illustration technique is particularly suited as a book for children since it highlights to great effect how man's customs, lifestyles and traditions take on significance only when seen against the backdrop of the skies, hills, rivers and natural world that gave rise to them. Translation and music by Northern Cree Have you danced the round dance yet? Of course you have-you're in my dream. You've danced in circles next to me You now know things aren't as they seem.

And Northern Cree teams up once again with David Bouchard, providing the translation from English to Cree and the haunting drum music on a bound-in book CD.
