Product Description

Just what is it that makes Canadians so ... Canadian? From Mounties to maple syrup, this delightful new entry in the award winning Wow Canada! series provides young readers with an engaging examination and celebration of some of the more singular facets of Canadian culture. Written from the viewpoint of a student doing a project on Canada's symbols and cultural identity, it answers questions such as Why are cereal boxes written in French and English? How did a beaver become the national icon? What is a "loonie"? and What's with "eh"? The book also offers straightforward information on Canadian spelling, usage, and pronunciation; national, provincial, and territorial symbols; uniquely Canadian foods like pemmican and fiddleheads; and the differences between Canada and its neighbor to the south, America.
