My First Blackfoot Word Coloring Book
My First Blackfoot Word Coloring Book is a heartfelt exploration of the Blackfoot language, passed down through generations of oral tradition. Growing up on the Kainai (Blood) reservation, I was blessed to hear Blackfoot spoken daily by my late grandparents, Leona and Glen Eaglespeaker—especially when I was in trouble, of course! But while we spoke the language, we never wrote it down. The thought never even crossed my mind.
In this language book, I’m sharing the words as I was taught them—written phonetically, capturing the sounds and rhythms of Blackfoot as I experienced them. With invaluable help from Mary Ann Crow Healy, I’ve created a simple Pronunciation Guide to make it even easier to follow along.
This book is more than just a language guide—it's a tribute to my ancestors and the powerful legacy of the Blackfoot people. It’s an invitation for readers to reconnect with this beautiful language, whether you’re a native speaker or someone eager to learn. My First Blackfoot Word Coloring Book is a chance to color, honor and preserve a vital part of Blackfoot culture, one word at a time.
