CanLit for Little Canadians reviews Dad, I Miss You
CanLit for Little Canadians has reviewed Dad, I Miss You, written by Nadia Sammurtok and illustrated by Simji Park.
“Every book that speaks about the tragedy of families separated when Indigenous children were forced into residential schools is unique and revealing. By focusing on the unspoken thoughts of a parent and a child, Nadia Sammurtok makes us see something a little different. The bond between a parent and a child is stretched and almost severed and yet there is hope that there is enough resilience to reunite and strengthen. Dad, I Miss You is a story of tragedy but also one of the capacity of family to reconnect and prevail.”
