Mwâkwa-Talks to the Loon is the timeless story of Kayas, a young Cree man who is blessed with the ability to hunt well and provide for his People. Eventually, Kayas takes his great gift for granted and, as a result, the gift becomes lost to him and his People grow hungry.

With the help of the Elders and the Beings that inhabit the water, young Kayas is taught to respect his abilities and to realize that in order to live a life of success, fulfillment and peace, we must always remember to cherish and respect the talents and skills we have been given.

The book is written in English, but includes Cree words and phrases, along with a glossary and Cree pronunciation guide.

Illustrated throughout with powerfully insightful and sensitive paintings by author Dale Auger, one of Canada's most evocative artists, Mwâkwa: Talks to the Loon introduces readers young and old to his magical world.
