"Lii Yiiboo Nayaapiwak lii Swer: L'Alfabet di Michif, Owls See Clearly at Night: A Michif Alphabet is the long-awaited children's picture book written and illustrated by Julie Flett, illustrator of Zoe and the Fawn. The author draws inspiration from her Métis heritage and has created a beautiful and engaging children's alphabet with a twist. All the letters are taken from words in the Michif language. The language developed as a combination of French and Cree or Ojibwe. This uniquely Canadian development does not contain the letters Q and X and the author/illustrator respects this fact. The book begins with an invitation drawn from the word, Atayookee, Tell a Story. The letter B is represented by Buffalo and readers see a buffalo on the plains with a bird riding on its back. The illustrations are digitally manipulated and use simple silhouettes and ample use of white space. The viewer is instantly drawn to the key feature of the art that corresponds to the Michif term. During further exploration of the image one sees playful additions as in the page representing the letter G, La Galet, Bannock. Sitting on a stump outdoors is a teapot and pan of Bannock but hiding behind a tree is the outline of a creature hoping for a taste. Each image and letter is a new experience for the young child and the adult reader. The afterword provides adults with a brief pronunciation guide for Michif and some historical information about the language known as Michif. This book should engage adults and young children alike with its gentle images and simple message of celebrating Metis people and the environment. Winner of 2011 CHRISTIE HARRIS ILLUSTRATED CHILDREN'S LITERATURE PRIZE. Highly Recommended."--Goodminds |
