"Beautiful, poignant and poetic. This story will weave its way into
the hearts and minds of readers for generations." —Monique Gray
Smith, author of My Heart Fills With Happiness From beloved
Indigenous icon Buffy Sainte-Marie comes a chapter book inspired by
oral histories and traditions. On a prairie reserve, Tâpwê
receives a mysterious gift from Kokhom (grandma)—and finds
himself on an unforgettable adventure. Tâpwê can’t wait
to spend a week with his cousins on the other side of the Cree
reserve—especially since Kokhom, his grandma, has given him the
most amazing gift: a Magic Hat with bluebirds and grass snakes that
come to life! Tâpwê is so excited that he soon forgets Kokhom’s
advice: Watch out for tricksters! Tâpwê’s adventure is
everything he imagined. He meets his cousins, takes part in a
powwow, and sleeps in a tipi. But soon he’s reminded of
Kokhom’s words. Is his new friend Wâpos leading him astray with
mischief? Tâpwê and the Magic Hat draws on a rich Indigenous
tradition of storytelling and features: A memorable cast of
characters from both imagination and legend. A glossary and
pronunciation guide of Cree words used in the book. A note
to parents and teachers from Buffy Sainte-Marie about trickster
stories. An important message for young readers about being
yourself, and learning to dance to the beat of your own heart.
Features black and white illustrations throughout.
