Read, Listen, Tell: Indigenous Stories from Turtle Island
Sophie McCall, Deanna Reder, David Gaertner and Gabrielle L'Hirondelle Hill (2017).
The goal of Read, Listen, Tell is not only to share with readers an incredibly diverse collection of Indigenous stories, but also to transform methods of reading by bringing into the forefront practices in interpreting texts that are grounded in Indigenous knowledge and scholarship. Each of the chapters offers particular strategies for reading the stories in multiple ways, encouraging readers to expand the scope of the "short story" by including a broad range of story forms. The chapters consist of five to seven stories, accompanied by a critical essay that helps contextualize some of the questions and issues the stories raise.

The New Smoke Signals: Communicating in a Digital World
Rachel Mishenene (2014).
The Internet and social media are a huge part of the day-to-day lives of many First Nation, Inuit and Métis people. Our ancestors used storytelling to pass on history, lessons learned and teachings. Now, we often share stories online. Author Rachel Mishenene, has combined social media explanations and tips with fun and engaging short stories, serving up reminders of when and how to communicate properly and effectively in a digital world.
Co-produced with the Art Gallery of Hamilton, Hamilton; and Indigenous Media Arts Group, Vancouver (2005).
Transference, Tradition, Technology explores Canadian Aboriginal new media and references the work of artists within a political, cultural and aesthetic milieu. The book constructs a Native art history relating to these disciplines, one that is grounded in the philosophical and cosmological foundations of Aboriginal concepts of community and identity within the rigour of contemporary arts discourse.
