The common theme among the books is their focus on First Nations, Indigenous people and their experiences in North America. Many of the books explore historical events such as the French and Indian War, the Canadian Indian residential school system, and the Viking expansion. There are also memoirs and fictional stories that highlight the struggles and triumphs of Indigenous individuals. The importance of storytelling and cultural preservation is also a recurring theme throughout several of the books.
