	La terre mère, nous venons d'elle, nous allons vers elle et sans elle, nous ne serions pas ici. Elle nous donne à tous la vie et grâce à elle, nous sommes une seule et même famille. Dans presque tous les segments de la vie autochtone, on parle de la terre mère, du père ciel, du grand-père soleil et de la grand-mère lune. L’oeuvre Rencontre ta famille est un poème rythmé de David Bouchard qui fera découvrir aux lecteurs ces personnages importants et mettra en lumière un concept plus large de la vision du monde, celui de la famille naturelle
