Children Like Us by Brittany Penner
In Children Like Us: A Métis Woman's Memoir of Family, Identity and Walking Herself Home, Brittany Penner traces her path through family history, dislocation, and the long work of naming herself Métis on her own terms. Moving between childhood memories, community stories, and adult reckonings, she writes about the gaps in official narratives and the quiet ways identity is policed and reclaimed. The voice is direct and reflective, more like a conversation than a performance, and the book holds space for grief, anger, and joy without flattening any of them.
POR QUÉ LO ELEGIMOS
Because it offers a grounded, personal account of Métis identity that does not smooth out the hard parts for a general audience. Children Like Us is a strong pick for readers interested in Indigenous memoir, questions of belonging, and the work of returning to community.
