My First Blackfoot Word Book

In this language book, I'm sharing the words as I was taught them-written phonetically, capturing the sounds and rhythms of Blackfoot as I experienced them. With invaluable help from Mary Ann Crow Healy, I've created a simple Pronunciation Guide to make it even easier to follow along.

This book is more than just a language guide-it's a tribute to my ancestors and the powerful legacy of the Blackfoot people. It's an invitation for readers to reconnect with this beautiful language, whether you're a native speaker or someone eager to learn. My First Blackfoot Word Book is a chance to honor and preserve a vital part of Indigenous culture, one word at a time." - Jason Eaglespeaker
