(2) K-3 Clarence and his grandma pick "wild berries / pikaci-mīnisa." Each double-page spread describes the sights and sounds and also uses one word in a dialect of Cree (the "n" dialect, known as Swampy Cree), highlighted in red font. The muted earth tones of the watercolor and collage illustrations perfectly complement the quiet story. A pronunciation guide and glossary are appended.
