Raise up Indigenous Voices
As a publishing house, we see every day how stories are a powerful way to educate and make connections. June is National Indigenous History Month, and June 21 is National Indigenous Peoples Day, established to recognize and celebrate the cultures, contributions, history, and futures of the First Nations, Inuit, and Métis peoples. With that in mind, we would like to share books by and about Indigenous people with you.
These books are perfect for those who want to celebrate Indigenous art, culture, and stories, or for readers who want to learn more.
These titles are available online or through your local bookstore. We encourage you to check out some Indigenous-owned bookstores in Canada:
