TÒapwÒe can't wait to spend a week with his cousins on the other side of the reserve--especially since his Kokum has given him the most amazing gift. His new Magic Hat has bluebirds and grass snakes that come to life! He's so excited to see what adventures he and his new animal friends will have that he forgets his Kokum's advice: Watch out for tricksters! TÒapwÒe's adventure is everything he hoped it would be. He meets his cousins, takes part in a powwow, and sleeps in a tipi. Soon enough, though, TÒapwÒe is reminded of his Kokum's words. Is his new friend Wapoose really a friend, or is his mischief-making leading TÒapwÒe astray? Beautifully illustrated by Michelle Alynn Clement, TÒapwÒe and the Magic Hat brings to life a world that is not often portrayed for young readers. Drawing on a rich Indigenous tradition of storytelling, and featuring a memorable cast of characters drawn from imagination and legend, TÒapwÒe and the Magic Hat is both an engaging read and a lesson on learning how to dance to the beat of your own heart.
