Zaagidiwin is a many splendoured thing : love, laughter & learning stories from Aboriginal writers

Summary: Of all the human emotions we possess, love is probably the most influential. Sometimes the source of our deepest pleasures and our deepest agonies, love can encompass many dynamics. Love can cause us to be selfish one day and giving the next. Love is fulfilling, spiritual, and even physical. Love can be very natural and simple, yet it can cause us to become completely irrational. Everywhere we look-- nature, society, learning, relationships and family--love affects all aspects of our lives. Ningwakwe Learning Press proudly presents the following stories that highlight some of the joys and pains of love.
