The illustrator of the beautiful My Powerful Hair and Fierce Aunties has created a lovely book about our connection to the land and the people around us. The illustrations in the book are vibrant and show many of the natural wonders of the Pacific Northwest. Littlebird also begins the book with an author’s note talking about her tribe, their beliefs, and her hopes for the book. Its inclusion at the beginning of the book will help adults and kids read the book with a clearer understanding of and greater appreciation for the message of the story.

This book would make a great addition to any school or home library. Kids of all ages will be drawn to the striking illustrations, and the message about our connection to and responsibility for the land will benefit all.
