Thelma a Métis Girl Who Was Born in a Storm
A beautiful introduction to Métis culture and traditions . . .
Thelma's favorite time of day is after dinner when her family gathers around the fireplace to be together and hear her father's stories. The story she loves best is the one about the night she was born---in a fierce storm! Her father says he always knew she would grow up to be as fierce as the storm she was born in, but her mother tells her there's more to the story. Join Thelma and her Métis family and learn what that something more is!
"This book is based on a true story that happened to Julie's grandmother, Thelma Chalifoux, the first female Métis senator in the Canadian federal government. She was a fearless advocate for the rights of the Métis people and worked hard to make sure they had a voice when they had historically been silenced for their heritage. Thelma's story is an inspiration to all, and the children's books introduce everyone to the beautiful Métis culture and traditions that Thelma Chalifoux so treasured."
