Assiniboine: Book of Colors

By Vicki Bisbee

Designed to promote language revitalization and early learning, the Assiniboine Book of Colors is an interesting and culturally rich introduction to the Assiniboine (Nakoda) language. Readers are introduced to real Assiniboine words, phonetic pronunciations, and distinctive linguistic characteristics that set the language apart from English through a straightforward but insightful examination of colors. For students of all ages, the book provides information on letter distinctions, nasal sounds, and pronunciation guides. This book, which promotes connection, understanding, and the preservation of a living Indigenous language, is both an educational tool and a celebration of Assiniboine heritage. It is based on cultural pride.
