nimiywêyihtên: "I Feel Great" - Paperback

by Serina Follette (Illustrator), Jason Eaglespeaker (Editor), Lana Whiskeyjack (Author)

A Cree language book for kids.

Lana Whiskeyjack's research for the completion of the iyiniw pim tisiwin kiskeyihtamowin Doctoral Program at UnBQ, which included the exploration of Indigenous conceptions of beauty.

The intention of the research was to define beauty from an Indigenous worldview, and remind generations of iskwewak (women) of their powerful roles, sacredness, and inherent connection to this land that we not w m waskiy.

The idea for this book sprang from many conversations, and much tea and bannock, throughout this process. The affirmations of this book are the collective voice that each iskwew contributed in the research.
