Encounter / written by Brittany Luby ; illustrated by Michaela Goade. by Luby, Brittany. Tundra, c2019. Call #: FICTION LUB Subjects Cartier, Jacques, 1491-1557 -- Juvenile fiction.   Indigenous peoples -- Canada -- Juvenile fiction. ISBN:  9780735265813 Description:  1 volume (unpaged) : colour illustrations ; 22 x 26 cm. Summary:  Two people navigate their differences with curiosity and openness in this stunning picture book that imagines the first meeting between an Indigenous fisher and a European sailor. Based on an actual journal entry by French explorer Jacques Cartier from his first expedition to North America in July 1534, this story imagines the first encounter between a European sailor and a Stadaconan fisher. As the two navigate their differences (language, dress, food) with curiosity, the natural world around them notes their similarities. The seagull observes their like shadows, the mosquito notes their equally appealing blood, the mouse enjoys the crumbs both people leave behind. This story explores how encounters can create community and celebrates varying perspectives and the natural world. It is at once specific and universal. It's a story based on a primary document and historical research, but it is in equal measure beautifully imagined. It makes room for us to recognize our differences while celebrating our shared humanity. Genre:  Canadian fiction, Juvenile. School age picture book. Other authors:  Goade, Michaela.
