Publisher Description: A heritage told through time.
A history of family connections, cunning trickster animals, and adventures untold: Old Grandmother's Tree: A Collection of French-Canadian Folktales is a beautiful compilation of folktales set against the backdrop of 17th and early 20th century Québec.
On her wedding night, a young Algonquin woman is visited by the spirit of her first husband and the trickster animals of Indigenous legends, who encourage her to set forth on a new journey. So begins the Meunier family's origin story and the many adventures that come through the generations that follow.
Combining richly woven stories and stunning artwork, Joseph Bolton's and Natasha Pelley-Smith's Old Grandmother's Tree is a tribute to an untold history that will touch any reader.
