Summary: |
The book is a collection of stories written by children and youth from northeastern British Columbia, Canada who share their views on local wildlife. Personal and candid, their stories offer a glimpse into the lives of the people who call this stunning region home - a region known for its diverse culture and compelling history, and blessed with an abundance of natural resources. With various Aboriginal communities adding to the soul of this region, readers will also gain insights into, and appreciation for, Canada's Aboriginal culture as seen through the eyes of Aboriginal children, and how the natural environment is integrated with their daily lives. All proceeds from the purchase of Eyes of the Northeast benefit Literacy BC, an independent, non-partisan, membership-based, registered, not-for-profit organization dedicated to promoting and supporting literacy and lifelong learning in British Columbia.
