Voices of Indigenous Kids
Download a sample
After her critically acclaimed books of interviews with Afghan, Iraqi, Israeli and Palestinian children, Deborah Ellis turns her attention closer to home. For two years she traveled across the United States and Canada interviewing Indigenous youth. The result is a compelling collection of interviews with children aged nine to eighteen. They come from all over the continent, from Iqaluit to Texas, Haida Gwaii to North Carolina, and their stories run the gamut — some heartbreaking; many others full of pride and hope.
All royalties from the sale of this book will go to the First Nations Child and Family Caring Society, which does incredible work to support Native youth in foster care.
