The Discovering Canada series presents information, stories and activities to make Canadian history interesting to young people. Each of the eleven illustrated books focuses on a theme in Canadian history and includes primary source quotes, biographical details, vocabulary, activities and games. This volume of the series brings to life the time before the white European settlers “discovered” Canada, when only the original native peoples lived here. Who were these peoples? Where did they live? What were their legends and myths, famous heroes and supernatural gods?
