Description
CANADIAN MYTHOLOGY; Our Nations Legends, Myths and Tales is a compelling collection of stories drawn from across Canada, bringing together First Nations oral traditions, French Canadian folklore, and English Canadian legends into one immersive journey shaped by land, memory, and place.
From Raven stealing the sun and Sky Woman’s fall to create Turtle Island, to flying canoes, werewolves, ghost ships, lake monsters, and lost treasure, these stories reveal how generations have used myth to understand the world around them.
Rooted in rivers, forests, prairies, and coastlines, each tale reflects a deep relationship with the land and the forces that shape human life.
Written for general readers and folklore enthusiasts, this book presents Indigenous stories with respect for their living cultural significance, alongside French and English Canadian traditions forged through faith, endurance, mystery, and survival.
Rather than offering definitive versions, CANADIAN MYTHOLOGY; Our Nations Legends, Myths and Tales honors storytelling as a living practice—one that continues to teach balance, responsibility, and connection.
Ideal for readers interested in mythology, Indigenous storytelling, Canadian culture, and nature-centered narratives.
