Abstract:
Spirit Bear and Children Make History tells the true story about how Spirit Bear and his friends stood up for First Nations children and helped make Jordan's Principle a reality. When Spirit Bear's mom tells him about an important human rights case happening in Ottawa, Ontario, he makes the LONG trip (by train, his favourite way to travel) to go and watch, and to stand up for First Nations kids. And he isn't the only one! Lots of children come too--to listen, and to show they care. Spirit Bear knows that children can change the world because he's there to see it happen. This is the story of how kids--kids just like you--made a difference... with a bit of help from some bears and other animals along the way!
