Phyllis Webstad Excited For The Release Of Her Latest Book
SHARE ON: From the Orange Shirt Day Society Facebook Page
A new book from the Executive Director and Founder of the Orange Shirt Society will be available September first.
Phyllis Webstad said in a Facebook post that “Beyond The Orange Shirt Story” is a collection of stories from six generations of her family to give more context and personal stories of the Residential School experience.
“It’s for grade five classes,” Webstad said about the book, “When I go into schools to teach, my first two books are for the younger children, and when I go into the older classes, like grade 5, they have more questions then my experience can answer. I don’t have personal stories to share with the older students so I thought if I had a book with a compilation of stories from my family that would answer some of those questions.”
