A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur :

The language of the Mtis, Michif is a combination of French and Cree with a trace of other regional languages. Once spoken by thousands of people across the prairies of Canada and the northern United States, Michif is now so little spoken that it might disappear within a generation. This alphabet book is part of a resurgence to celebrate and preserve the traditions of the Mtis people. Here Michif and English words combine with images from Mtis culture to introduce all generations to the unique Michif language.
