Series: Turtle Island Series - Miigmag Translation

At the new skate park, Honey dares her brother Hunter to go down the big ramp. Hunter's stomach feels funny, and his friend tries to stop him. But Hunter is a risk-taker, and he takes off-only to lose control. Hunter blames Honey for his injured paw, but when the bear siblings visit their elder, Dawn the Beaver, she shares wisdom to help Hunter make better choices, and his perspective changes completely.

Hunter Makes a Choice is part of an Indigenous lit series set on Turtle Island and aims to empower early readers to make positive choices in life.
