It was a great session in the Fraser Valley. Musi for all your work @northendmc.bsky.social #IndigenousAuthorJoy
Two-Spirit and Indigenous LGBTQQIA+ Celebration and Awareness Day was on March 20—the same day A TWO-SPIRIT JOURNEY took home the Canada Reads win. Everyone at UMP is extraordinarily honoured to be part of sharing Ma-Nee's story and grateful that so many more Canadians will now be part of it too.
Thank you to Michael Redhead Champagne @northendmc.bsky.social for hosting a truly special conversation, to everyone who joined us, to @cbcradiocanada.bsky.social for supporting the event, and to Ma-Nee and Shayla for sharing your words and your hearts with us!
It's been a whirlwind week since A TWO-SPIRIT JOURNEY by Ma-Nee Chacaby with Mary Louisa Plummer won CBC Books #CanadaReads2025! One incredible highlight from the past few days was celebrating with Ma-Nee and the book's champion, Shayla Stonechild, at The Merchants Corner here in Winnipeg.
We're so excited to share that @northendmc.bsky.social will be hosting next Sunday's event celebrating A TWO-SPIRIT JOURNEY! Join us for conversation, storytelling, bannock, tea, and books! www.eventbrite.com/e... But first: don't miss CBC's #CanadaReads, starting tomorrow!

A quick look at our gifts. Simple children’s story that explains we all have gifts, and we need them all. Enthusiastic and straightforward. ~ Brooke www.goodreads.com/re... 4/4
Tzhe message (find your gifts and share them!) is valuable and well conveyed, but the illustrations take the day. A variety of kids of so many differences are used throughout the examples , making the variety of society totally normative. ~ Sandy www.goodreads.com/re... 3/4
I could absolutely see this being used as a beginning of the year book where elementary students could think about their own gifts and how they can use them to contribute to the class or school community. ~ Taylor www.goodreads.com/re... 2/4
