Loaf the Cat Goes to the Pow Wow

Loaf the Cat Goes to the Pow Wow follows a curious cat who sets out to find her missing boy, tracking his scent to a powwow filled with drums, color, and dancing, where she watches him twirl the ribbons of his regalia with pride. Written by Bois Forte Ojibwe author Nicholas DeShaw, the story offers a loving, authentic glimpse into a powwow through the eyes of a devoted pet. This is a warm choice for students because it introduces Native cultural celebration through a gentle, accessible animal story.
