Lelou’s Journey
Authors: Sgaan Jaada (Anastasia Hendry) and Lori Sherritt-Fleming Illustrator: Christine Mackenzie
“Some who leave camp are lost for the whole season, or even worse…forever.”
When curious Lelou who lives in the time of the ancestors wanders away from his family’s camp, he embarks on the journey of a lifetime. Lost in the forest at night, someone or something journeys with him. Follow Lelou and learn how certain places earned their names in this unique draw and tell adventure that vividly brings North West Coast culture and tradition to life right before your eyes.
Lelou’s Journey is an original draw and tell story. The draw and tell technique was used by storytellers to illustrate a tale as it was being told. In ancient times, the storyteller would use a stick and draw lines and shapes in the sand which, as the story concluded, would form a character or picture to reveal one of the story’s secrets. Lelou’s Journey invites readers to draw and tell the story of how a place may have earned its name, and by adding lines at the turn of each page, that are synchronized with the story, discover, at the story’s conclusion, the creature that tracked Lelou on his night time journey through the deepest, darkest parts of his adventure. A fantastic stand alone story or an interactive resource to teach some aspects of North West Coast culture, Lelou’s Journey is a must have bed time story or classroom resource.
