The Song within My Heart
David Bouchard, illustrated by Allen Sapp
A grandmother accompanies her grandson as he prepares for and attends his first powwow. He hears drums and singing but cannot yet understand their meaning. She encourages him to listen closely, helping him find stories and a deeper connection to his culture. Told in English and Cree, the book places the boy’s experience alongside his grandmother’s guidance, connecting First Nations history, the present, and his future.
