“Adorable! I love the concept of this show and the execution is excellent! This series for children helps teach Cree through stories told by a Mooshum to a young girl. The series offers audiences insight into the Cree culture, guided by Mooshum, specifically in teaching simple words and phrases. I give Stories of the North 4.5 out of 5 stars and recommend it for ages 5 to 12, plus adults. - KIDS FIRST – Coalition for Quality Children’s Media
