This month, we will read My Heart Fills With Happiness / Nijiikendam by Monique Gray Smith.
Summary:
"The sun on your face. The smell of warm bannock baking in the oven. Holding the hand of someone you love. What fills your heart with happiness? This beautiful book, with illustrations from celebrated artist Julie Flett, serves as a reminder for little ones and adults alike to reflect on and cherish the moments in life that bring us joy.
International speaker and award-winning author Monique Gray Smith wrote My Heart Fills with Happiness to support the wellness of Indigenous children and families and to encourage young children to reflect on what makes them happy.
This bilingual book includes full text in both English and Anishinaabemowin."
