It’s a time of Easter, new beginnings and Canadian Literature! This month, we’re talking about the best that the Great White North has to offer to the world of books. Whether you know it or not, Canadians continue to contribute incredible stories to the world of literature to this day. It’s high time that we celebrate the authors, characters, and tales that our nation has to offer. Come along and discover what you’ve been missing.
What better time than Canadian Literature month for us to speak about truth, reconciliation, and beautiful stories written by Indigenous authors. This week, we’re taking a look at five fantastic works from Canadian authors that provide important teachings about Indigenous heritage and the history of Indigenous peoples in Canada.
