Tatsǫ́ Ekwę́ Nánéhɂı̨
This is a unilingual story with hand-drawn illustrations and Dene text about a journey to find Caribou, with help from a Raven, an Owl, and a Wolf. The caribou are all walled into an enclosure, but the wolf helps the Dene break them free. This document has a stamp on the last page that reads “Interpreter/Translator Program.” The first two lines read:
Yahnı̨́ı̨ ts’ę́ łǫ́ǫ́ łánı nágedé. Bé wı́le dúwé redı Dene ke dzene táoneht’é nágezé kúlú asıł łágıhwhı́le.
