Parfois je suis un renard
rus et astucieux.
J'observe mon entourage.
Puis, en un clin d'oeil, je disparais.

Les illustrations douces et color es repr sentent des enfants portant des masques d'animaux et sont accompagn es de courts textes po tiques.
In this introduction to the Anishinaabe tradition of totem animals, young children explain why they identify with different creatures such as a deer, beaver or moose. Delightful illustrations show the children wearing masks representing their chosen animal, while the few lines of text on each page work as a series of simple poems throughout the book.
In a brief author's note, Danielle Daniel explains the importance of totem animals in Anishinaabe culture and how they can also act as animal guides for young children seeking to understand themselves and others.
