Métis Like Me introduces young readers to Métis identity through a child narrator who points out the many ways Métis people live, work, celebrate, and care for one another today. With warm illustrations and simple, rhythmic text, the book emphasizes continuity and everyday life rather than treating Indigenous identity as something only in the past. It’s designed to be read aloud, with details in the art that reward repeat readings.

WHY WE PICKED IT
Because it offers an affirming, contemporary picture of Métis life for kids and the adults reading with them. Métis Like Me is a strong pick for classrooms, storytimes, and families looking for Indigenous children’s books that feel current and specific.
