You can read Still This Love Goes On by Buffy Sainte-Marie as a book about seasons. You'll see people and animals on wide landscapes of snow, or fields of grass and flowers. . . . Or, with the references to sweetgrass and drums and jingle dancers, you can read it as a book about Native people. Or, you can sing along with Sainte-Marie! You'll find her singing it on her album, Running For the Drum. If you read music and play an instrument, you can turn to the sheet music at the end of the book. |
