In the first two books of the Compassion Series, author Tim Huff has looked homelessness and the disabled. The third book in that series is The Honour Drum (http://castlequaybooks.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&products_id=107) and is co-authored by singer/songwriter and politician Cheryl Bear. Through images, story, commentary and discussion questions, The Honour Drum is a key starting point to learning about and understanding the issues facing Canada’s Indigenous people. On the phone with us from his Toronto-area home is Tim Huff and from her home in B.C. is Cheryl Bear to talk about the book.

Interludes feature music from Steve Bell's CD Where the Good Way Lies.
