The story of Muin and the Seven Bird Hunters is a very old Mi’kmaw legend. The story is told in the North Sky through the stars that move around Tatapn, the North Star.
Through the illustrations in this book you can see how these stars move through the night sky. The stars change positions each season because they are the time-keepers, the calendar. Throughout the year, as the stars and planets travel through the sky, the Mi’kmaq watch the story of Muin and the Seven Bird Hunters as it unfolds before their eyes.
