Publisher's Synopsis

See below for English description.

Phoenix adore jouer à la poupée et admirer toutes sortes de tissus. Mais ce qu'il aime par-dessus tout, c'est danser. Il adore le ballet, il danse lors des pow-wow, et il tournoie et tourbillonne à la maison. Ses camarades s'en prennent parfois à lui parce qu'il est différent, mais sa mère et son frère sont fiers de lui. Avec leur aide, Phoenix découvre les personnes bispirituelles, ou niizh manidoowag, de la culture anishinaabe. Il réalise ainsi à quel point il est exceptionnel.

En s'appuyant sur l'expérience de son propre fils Phoenix, Marty Wilson-Trudeau nous montre qu'une famille aimante et bienveillante peut faire la différence.

Phoenix loves to play with dolls and marvel at pretty fabrics. Most of all, he loves to dance -- ballet, Pow Wow dancing, or just swirling and twirling around his house. Sometimes Phoenix gets picked on and he struggles with feeling different, but his mom and brother are proud of him. With their help, Phoenix learns about Two Spirit/Niizh Manidoowag people in Anishinaabe culture and just how special he is.

Based on the childhood experiences of her son, Phoenix, Marty Wilson-Trudeau demonstrates the difference that a loving and supportive family can make.
