Journey To The Lake is a whimsical story of one animal's adventures through ecosystems and seasons on the Flathead Indian Reservation in Montana. Children (ages 5-8) will meet the native animals and plant communities that inhabit high-elevation to valley-floor habitats in the Mission Mountain range. The story is richly illustrated and unfolds by following the Salish Seasonal Round- an indigenous calendar used by the Salish peoples of Montana for millennia. An educator's guide is included to expand children's scientific inquiry and support early reading skills by using inquiry. Readers can also use a QR code to hear the story in Salish. All book sales support the Wildlife and Fisheries program at Salish Kootenai College.
