WHAT ARE WE READING???

A wonderful children’s book called How Dog Became a Friend. Written by Paul O’Neil, this beautiful book is illustrated by Thunder Bay’s Cynthia Colosimo. The book is based on an old arctic tale. It is the story of brother and sister who wander too far from home. They are captured by the Old Hag of the Wilderness. Although they beg all the animals for help, none will come to their rescue. But then Dog comes by….

Cynthia Colosimo now lives in Labrador and has worked on a number of community development projects. Her first book, Anguti’s Amulet, is based on a story from the northern islands of Labrador.
