On a visit to her granny, Maggie is excited to begin her first-ever
beading project: a pair of strawberry earrings. However, beading is
much harder than she expected! As they work side by side, Granny
shares how beading helped her persevere and stay connected to her
Anishinaabe culture when she lost her Indian status, forcing her
out of her home community--all because she married someone without
status, something the men of her community could do freely. As she
learns about patience and perseverance from her granny's teachings,
Maggie discovers that beading is a journey, and like every journey,
it's easier with a loved one at her side. In this beautifully
illustrated book, children learn about the tradition of Anishinaabe
beadwork, strawberry teachings, and gender discrimination in the
Indian Act.
