Nibi Emosaawdang: The Water Walker

Written and Illustrated by Joanne Robertson

Translated by Shirley Williams and Isadore Toulouse

“Nokomis Josephine Mandamin, an Ojibwe grandmother, walks to raise awareness of our need to protect Nibi for future generations, and for all life on this planet. Nokomis, along with other women, men, and young people, have walked around all, of the Great Lakes from the four salt waters- or oceans- all the way to Lake Superior. During one walk alone, she put almost 4,500,000 footsteps on her sneakers! Nokomis hopes that some of you reading this book will be inspired to protect Nibi too.”
