This book is about a girl and the dog she finds going to the end of summer powwow with her uncle. When they get to the powwow, the girl spends a lot of time enjoying herself at the powwow. She eventually falls asleep and dreams about powwows and what they mean and the history behind them. When she wakes up she has a better understanding and respect for the powwow she gets to attend at the end of summer. I would use this book in a 2nd grade classroom. Each page has the words translated into Red Lake Ojibwe which could be confusing for some younger children. I enjoy hearing about Native American Traditions. I grew up near a Reservation. One of my good friends is a member of the Oneida tribe. This story is about a girl, her dog and her uncle going to a Powwow. It went very late and she fell asleep dreaming about fancy dancers and the jingle dress, a traditional dancers dress. This book is beautifully written and illustrated with vivid colors and pictures. It's about a little Ojibwe girl who gathers stories from her uncle about traditions from a long time ago, dances, sharing, and thankfulness. Her uncle's stories about the pow-wow ceremony inspire her to dream about a bow-wow pow-wow where all the dancers are dogs. In her dream, she sees traditional dancers, grass dancers, fancy dancers, and jingle dress dancers. She learns the important meaning behind a pow-wow. We celebrate the songs, dances, our people, healing, and history. This story combines past and present representation of Ojibwe culture through the eyes of a little girl and her dog. During a Powwow, she imagines the history of her people told by her uncle with one little twist; the people are replaced by dogs walking on two legs in traditional clothing with traditional weapons. Typical representation of Native Americans usually consists of only telling the past from a very straight-forward perspective, but this story combines history with a playful story. It is refreshing to see Native Americans portrayed as they are today rather than only seen as peoples of the past. The book is about a girl named windy girl who finds a dog who is named itchy boy. Her uncle would tell her stories in his pickup truck that included the powwow. Windy girl then has an interesting dream about a powwow and gained a new perspective on it. The illustrations are also bright and colorful. It is written in both English and Ojibwa. This would be a good book for 3rd graders and below to read. sin reseñas | añadir una reseña

"When Uncle and Windy Girl attend a powwow, Windy watches the dancers and listens to the singers. She eats tasty food and joins family and friends around the campfire. Later, Windy falls asleep under the stars. Uncle's stories inspire visions in her head: a bowwow powwow, where all the dancers are dogs. In these magical scenes, Windy sees veterans in a Grand Entry, and a visiting drum group, and traditional dancers, grass dancers, and jingle-dress dancers--all with telltale ears and paws and tails. All celebrating in song and dance. All attesting to the wonder of the powwow."--Provided by publisher. No se han encontrado descripciones de biblioteca. |
