Overview
Petit Loup se couvre les yeux. Pas besoin de regarder pour savoir ce qui se passe. Une cicatrice rugueuse bien marquée apparaîtra sur la personne, là où elle a blessé le serpent. Les serpents ont disparu, mais les cicatrices restent. Elles rappellent les dangers de laisser la peur prendre le contrôle. Petit Loup n’a pas de cicatrice. Elle est récompensée pour son calme.
Toute sa vie, Petit Loup a vu des injustices qui l’ont bouleversée. À son école, elle a été intimidée pour son héritage autochtone. Sa mère, Corbeau Blanc, a passé dix ans dans un pensionnat, séparée de sa famille et loin de sa culture. Petit Loup s’inquiète pour l’avenir de ses filles. Mais une nuit, un rêve lui rappelle son rôle important dans la communauté comme guide de paix.
Femme Ormeau est le troisième livre de la série Petit Loup, et aborde les thèmes du racisme, du traumatisme et de l’unité familiale à travers un récit à la portée des enfants. Cette histoire inspirante est racontée au moyen d’images et de symboles qui marquent l’imaginaire.

A vivid dream teaches Little Wolf about courage and acceptance of those who are different, and inspires her to show her daughters and their classmates how to be proud of their diverse cultural backgrounds.
Throughout her life, Little Wolf has been troubled by the injustice she sees all around her. When she was young, she was bullied for her Indigenous heritage. Her mother, White Raven, spent ten years in a residential school, separated from her family and isolated from her culture. Little Wolf’s own children are growing up in a different, more open society, but hatred and racism still exist. Little Wolf worries about the world her daughters will inherit. One night, a vivid dream helps her realize her own strength as a leader and peacemaker in her community.
Told with powerful imagery and symbolism, Abalone Woman is the third book in the Little Wolf series, which presents themes of racism, trauma, and family unity through relatable, age-appropriate narratives.
