Author and illustrator Sylvain Rivard continues the youth series on the anthropology of clothing among First Nations with a fifth title, this time focusing on moccasins. Whether beaded, adorned with moose hair or porcupine quills, moccasins have been worn by all Aboriginal people for centuries. It is certainly the best known and most widespread part of First Nations dress tradition. Worn as much on a daily basis as during powwows, the moccasin is an integral part of our lives, our myths. The moccasin is trilingual, offering versions in French, English and Mi'kmaq, a language of the Algonquian family.
