My Friend May
Description
From the winner of the New York Times Best Illustrated Book Prize and the American Indian Youth Literature Award
I'd like to tell you a rather true story about a big black cat who started out gray. Her name was May.
Margaux and her cat May became friends when Margaux was just six years old. They grew up together, sharing countless memories along the way. But one day, May is late coming home. Where is May? Is she under the porch? Maybe on the roof?
Margaux's nitsis (the Cree word for auntie) helps search for May in the tall grass. But soon nitsis needs to leave: she's moving away to the big city, and has to pack her things into boxes. Margaux helps nitsis, but she can't take her mind off May. Will she ever return? nitsis is worried, too. But little do they know, May has a surprise in store for both of them!
This fun and heartwarming story with a surprise happy ending invites readers to share their own cat stories. My Friend May is a tribute to love and the balance between all beings, and the experiences and emotions that connect us all.
My Friend May features:
- A glossary of Cree words used throughout the book
- Backmatter content that includes a pronunciation guide
