Michael Kusugak Visits BWCS

Michael Kusugak and his wife, Gerry visit our school.  It was awesome.  He told us stories that were over 100 years old.  He taught us about cats cradle, how they lived, and how they made igloos.


Gerry dressed Vanessa in a traditional Inuit outfit.


Sam also was given an outfit.



Michael played the drum for us.

Here is a group shot with the kids.

Michael even signed my book!  We have three of his books: A Promise is a Promise Written by Robert Munsch and Michael Kusugak, Northern Lights The Soccer Trails, and Artic 123.  He has written many books.  The kids realllllly want me to buy The Littlest Sled Dog (so keep your eyes peeled if you ever see it).  What an amazing experience to meet a Canadian author at our school!

Here is a video of Michael playing the drum.
