Maggie Lou, Firefox / Arnolda Dufour Bowes ; illustrations by Karlene Harvey. by Dufour Bowes, Arnolda, 1974- Groundwood Books, House of Anansi Press, 2023. Call #: FICTION DUF Subjects Indigenous women -- Juvenile fiction.   Diligence -- Juvenile fiction.   Families -- Juvenile fiction. ISBN:  9781773068817 (pbk.) Description:  216 p. : ill. ; 20 cm. Summary:  "Maggie Lou's grandpa doesn't call her Firefox for nothing. She's always finding ways to make life more interesting -- even if this means getting into big trouble. When her grandfather Mushom finally agrees to teach her how to box, she decides that the rank odors, endless drills and teasing won't stop her from wearing a tutu to the gym. Joining her father's construction crew uncovers a surprising talent -- besides learning how to use a broom -- and a great source of scrap wood to build a canine hotel for her dogs. And when she turns thirteen, she figures out an ingenious way to make some smokin' good camouflage to wear on her first deer hunt, where she joins a long family tradition. Through it all she is surrounded by her big extended gumbo soup of a family, pestered by annoying younger siblings, and gently guided by her strong female relatives - her mother, her kokom and her ultra-cool cousin Jayda. "Keep taking up space," Maggie's mother says. "You're only making room for the girls behind you." A heroine for today, Maggie Lou discovers that with hard work and perseverance she can gain valuable new skills, without losing one iota of her irrepressible spirit."-- provided by publisher.
