Aprašymas

Learn about the rhythms of the seasons with Joshua in this soothing read-aloud story for ages 3 to 5.

Joshua loves being on the land. He loves to learn about plants and animals from his family. He loves to fish, to hunt, and to gather with the members of his family. And more than anything, Joshua loves mint. When the weather is warm, Joshua and his dad gather mint from the shores of Animbiigoo Zaagi'igan Anishinaabek (Lake Nipigon First Nation) in northeastern Ontario. But when will that be? It's not the time if the leaves are changing colour. It's not the time when the snow falls from the sky. It's not the time when the flowers are budding. When is it time to gather mint from the land?
