A welcome addition to multicultural bookshelves and public library children's collections

In "The Delta is My Home" by Tom McLeod and Mindy Willett, young readers are introduced to 11-year-old Tom McLeod from Aklavik, who tells of how the Mackenzie Delta floods in the spring, how to make bannock, and how to trap muskrats or hunt black ducks. Featuring beautiful color photography by Tessa Macintosh on almost every page, "The Delta is My Home" is a welcome addition to multicultural bookshelves and public library children's collections.
