Wolverine and Little Thunder are best of friends, even though Wolverine, a trickster, can sometimes get them into trouble. Their favourite pastime is eel fishing, whether it’s cutting through winter ice with a stone axe or catching eels in traditional stone weirs in the summer. But that all changes one night, when they encounter the giant river eel—the eel that is too big to catch. The eel that hunts people! At once a universal story of friendship and problem-solving, 'Wolverine and Little Thunder' is a contemporary retelling of a traditional Mi’kmaw story, reinforcing the importance of the relationship between the Mi’kmaq and the eel, a dependable year-round food source traditionally offered to Glooscap, the Creator, for a successful hunt.
