The Mishomis Book documents the history, traditions, and culture of the Ojibway people through stories and myths passed down through generations. Written by Ojibway educator and spiritual leader Edward Benton-Banai, and first published in 1988, The Mishomis Book draws from the traditional teachings of tribal elders to instruct young readers about Ojibway creation stories and legends, the origin and importance of the Ojibway family structure and clan system, the Midewiwin religion, the construction and use of the water drum and sweat lodge, and modern Ojibway history. Written for readers from all cultures-but especially for Ojibway and Native youth-The Mishomis Book provides an introduction to Ojibway culture and an understanding of the sacred Midewiwin teachings, aiming to protect this knowledge by instilling its importance in a new generation. Encouraging the preservation of a way of life that is centered on respect for all living things, these vibrant stories about life, self, community, and relationship to nature are just as relevant to the modern reader as they were hundreds of years ago.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"US \/ GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":49723777319185,"sku":"CIN0816673829G","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ GARDNERS","offer_id":50052877648145,"sku":"NGR9780816673827","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"US \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":51008328663313,"sku":"NIN9780816673827","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"US \/ VERY_GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":52105068511505,"sku":"CIN0816673829VG","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/0816673829.jpg?v=1764842864"},{"product_id":"mishomis-book-a-history-coloring-book-of-the-ojibway-indians-book-edward-benton-banai-9781517901349","title":"A Mishomis Book, a History-Coloring Book of the Ojibway Indians","description":"Who are the Ojibway people, and how did they come to live in the lands of the Great Lake? Let Mishomis, or “Grandfather” in the Ojibway language, draw you a picture. In these delightful coloring books, the history of the Ojibway unfolds, beginning with the story of creation.  As Original Man (some will call him Anishinabe) walks the Earth, giving names to all things, Mishomis carries young readers along with Ojibway lore and wonder and with pictures asking to be brought to colorful life. The story follows the first five books of The Mishomis Book, telling of the Original Man’s grandmother, Nokomis; of the Earth’s first people; and of the Great Flood that changed everything. Thank Gitchie Manito for Turtle, on whose back the new world rests! Coloring along with Mishomis’s words, readers will be enchanted to learn the legends and discover the spirit of the Ojibway traditions and way of life.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"US \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":51033161629969,"sku":"NIN9781517901349","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/1517901340.jpg?v=1764843930"},{"product_id":"mishomis-book-the-voice-of-the-ojibway-book-edward-benton-banai-9781893487000","title":"Mishomis Book: The Voice of the Ojibway","description":null,"brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"- \/ - \/ -","offer_id":51135907791121,"sku":"","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"US \/ GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":51135908020497,"sku":"CIN1893487008G","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/1893487008.jpg?v=1751347300"},{"product_id":"mishomis-book-set-of-five-coloring-books-book-edward-benton-banai-9781517901394","title":"A Mishomis Book (set of Five Coloring Books)","description":"Who are the Ojibway people, and how did they come to live in the lands of the Great Lake?
