Bag om Walking Together
This innovative picture book introduces readers to the concept of Etuaptmumkâ¿or Two-Eyed Seeing, the gift of multiple perspectives in the Miâ¿kmaw languageâ¿as we follow a group of young children connecting to nature as their teacher. A poetic, joyful celebration of the Lands and Waters as spring unfolds: we watch for Robin's return, listen for Frog's croaking, and wonder at maple tree's gift of sap. Grounded in Etuaptmumk, also known as Two-Eyed Seeingâ¿which braids together the strengths of Indigenous and non-Indigenous ways of knowingâ¿and the Miâ¿kmaq concept of Netukulimkâ¿meaning to protect Mother Earth for the ancestors, present, and future generationsâ¿Walking Together nurtures respectful, reciprocal, responsible relationships with the Land and Water, plant-life, animals and other-than-human beings for the benefit of all.
