I am often asked how a person comes to know their totem. When I am, I answer by asking this question: "If at night, before you close your eyes to travel to your dream time, if then you picture one of your wild cousins to whom you might ask guidance or give thanks, what would it be?" More often than not, your totem will be there, right before your eyes. You do not have to get fancy, just close your eyes and let it come to you. Chances are it will. It did for me. Written by Métis author, David Bouchard and illustrated by west coast First Nations artist Andy Everson, I Am Raven explores the world of totems and animal spirit guides. A great, kind and wise chief decides to erect a new totem pole. Knowing that he will soon die, the chief wants the pole to be representative of him but also to reflect the importance of others in his life. A series of birds and animals then try to convince the chief that their image should be carved into the chief's totem pole. I am Raven was the winner of the 2008 Moonbeam Children's Book Awards Gold Medal for best Multicultural Picture Book.
Autoren-Porträt von David Bouchard
Canada's award-winning author David Bouchard is Métis. The author of over two dozen bestselling books, his If You're Not From the Prairies is on Maclean's list of the top 20 children's books in the history of Canada. David was a teacher and a principle for many years before turning to writing. "I grew up in a white, Catholic society knowing nothing of my Métis roots. Recently a force has drawn me (pushed is perhaps more telling) to explore my own Native bloodlines. This journey, the ideas, the contacts and the passion are all inspired by my grandmother, my teacher, my Nokum!"Andy Everson was given the hereditary name Nagedzi after his grandfather, the late chief of the Comox, Andy Frank. Driven by the passion of traditional knowledge handed to him from his Grandmother, Andy has pursued a life steeped in culture. He has successfully taken the ancient art forms of the Kwakwaka'wakw into the contemporary art market to demonstrate that his people's culture is vibrant, alive and powerful.
