A beautifully illustrated reimagining of the origins of hockey from an Indigenous lens.
Killer Whale and Brown Bear are arguing: Brown Bear says he can beat Killer Whale at any challenge, yet Killer Whale disagrees. When Powerful Mena overhears their bickering, he comes up with a solution: a game on the ice, played with sticks, nets, and a star for a puck. But who will win and earn the trophy?
For kids aged 4-8, The Game features:
  • An introduction to Musqueam language and culture
  • Beautiful watercolor artwork from a celebrated Haida artist
  • Detailed backmatter and a pronunciation guide

  • With poetic text by gifted Indigenous storyteller Henry Charles (Ten Bears), an elder of the Musqueam First Nation, and breathtaking illustrations by Haida artist, Shoshannah Greene, The Game offers a vibrant introduction to Musqueam language and culture and inspires readers to rediscover a sport we know and love.
