From the Publisher
Call of the Fiddle completes the trilogy of a young boy as he embraces his Métis heritage and carries on his family's traditions. Wilfred Burton and Anne Patton capture Batoche's history and significance with their words, while Sherry Farrell Racette brings the land and Métis culture to life with her vibrant illustrations. Join Nolin one last time as he hears the rollicking rhythm of the "Red River Jig," learns of tearful memories, and experiences the excitement of jigging at Batoche! In addition to the story, the book contains a translation into Michif-Cree by Michif specialist Norman Fleury, as well as a CD with narrations in English by author Wilfred Burton, and in Michif by translator Norman Fleury.
