| | Synopsis
|
"It's early July, and for Matthew and his Auntie that means one
thing: time to go sweetgrass picking. This year, Matthew's younger
cousin Warren is coming along, and it will be his first time visiting
the shoreline where the sweetgrass grows. With Auntie's traditional
Mi'kmaw knowledge and Matthew's gentle guidance, Warren learns about
the many uses for sweetgrass—as traditional medicine, a sacred
offering, a smudging ingredient—and the importance of not picking
more than he needs. Once the trio is back at Auntie's house, she
shows the boys how to clean and braid the grass"—Back cover.
