Boozhoo! Hello! By Mangeshig Pawis-Steckley. Translated by Mary Ann Corbiere. A wolf is drawn in a Woodland art style, made out of simple organic shapes with smoothed, rounded lines. The wolf walks across the page while looking up at the title. It has a black head, and its body is made up of several different shapes with varying designs in blue, orange, red and green. The background is orange.

Hello! By Mangeshig Pawis-Steckley. Translated by Mary Ann Corbiere. A wolf is drawn in a Woodland art style, made out of simple organic shapes with smoothed, rounded lines. The wolf walks across the page while looking up at the title. It has a black head, and its body is made up of several different shapes with varying designs in blue, orange, red and green. The background is orange.","id":25723761885243,"position":1,"preview_image":{"aspect_ratio":1.0,"height":1600,"width":1600,"src":"\/\/houseofanansi.com\/cdn\/shop\/files\/BNCImageAPI_cd4eb6f0-b2e6-4de8-963a-b9025934b092.jpg?v=1756991782"},"aspect_ratio":1.0,"height":1600,"media_type":"image","src":"\/\/houseofanansi.com\/cdn\/shop\/files\/BNCImageAPI_cd4eb6f0-b2e6-4de8-963a-b9025934b092.jpg?v=1756991782","width":1600}],"requires_selling_plan":false,"selling_plan_groups":[],"content":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThis cheerful board book introduces the youngest of readers to woodland and water animals in English and Anishinaabemowin.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWho do you see and hear in the woods today?
