Primary - this book is written as an easy reader with drawings to accompany the text. The book describes how salmon was caught and smoked by the coastal First Nations people. The text is somewhat stilted - nonfiction information that they tried to convey as a story. Poor as a story - but lots of great information on how they caught and smoked salmon in the Coastal areas.

Compare with "Dipnetting with Dad" - a story about a Dad and son netting salmon in the interior.
