acâhkos nikamowini-pîkiskwêwina : nêhiyawi-kîsik âcimowin = The Star poems: a Cree sky narrative / Jesse Rae Archibald-Barber.

Summary:

"The Star Poems creatively engages Cree oral tradition in a new way, connecting Indigenous spirituality and quantum physics to honour the orgins of life and our place in the universe. Aided by grandmother Spider, Star Woman discovers the Hole-in-the-Sky, opening a pathway for the Star People to experience the wonder of life on earth. But the world falls into the hands of the Paper People, jeopardizing the sacred harmony between nature and the cosmos. And so Little Spirit, a young boy, must search for meaning and find redemption in the care of Grandmother Moon." - back of book.
