Read by LaRae Wiley sn̓aʕyčkstx, Arrow Lakes Band.

Beloved by educators and embraced by readers, The Heart of a River is BACK IN PRINT.

This story of the Columbia River is unique. Told from the river’s perspective, it is an immersive, empathetic portrait of a once-wild river and of the Sinixt, a First People who lived on the mainstem of this great western river for thousands of years, and continue to do so even though Canada declared them “extinct” in 1956.

Registration is required.
