Hunter Makes A Choice - Wolastoqey Translation
by Mike Hennessey and Rachel McNair


At the new skate park, Honey dares her brother Hunter to go down the big ramp. Hunter’s stomach feels funny, and his friend tries to stop him. But Hunter is a risk-taker, and he takes off—only to lose control. Hunter blames Honey for his injured paw, but when the bear siblings visit their elder, Dawn the Beaver, she shares wisdom to help Hunter make better choices, and his perspective changes completely. Hunter Makes a Choice is part of an Indigenous lit series set on Turtle Island and aims to empower early readers to make positive choices in life.

Rachel McNair has worked with children for over a decade and has a Master of Education in Counselling. For four years, she has worked directly with Indigenous children in a counselling setting to face social and emotional hurdles.
