"An amazing story set within the beauty of the Native American world. The words, the emotions are heart deep, and the illustrations will take your breath with their beauty. I wish this book would have been around when our children were small. I have and will be buying it for others--a great gift for little ones and their parents and grandparents."

“A must have for your Library Collection (and for little ones in your life). This is a wonderful addition to anyone's life. The author beautifully draws out the story of identity and belonging. I highly recommend this book as a librarian and a parent."

“My daughters love this book. My 7 year old read it through the first time and said, "Mama, the girl and the mama in the book are just like you and me." The illustrations in the book are absolutely beautiful. The story is a great story that has led to some great discussions about being Indigenous and what it means for young women. Great buy-not just for native females but anyone looking to diversify their children's library!"

“This is an affirmational picture book, promoting pride in one's heritage and the importance of stewardship for the Earth...Libraries expanding offerings by native authors will want to add this book."

"Absolutely love this book! A perfect addition to everyone's youth library."

"In a world with so much division, this story is important as it reminds us and teaches children that we are all human, we are all one and we all have a history that is important and unique. It is a beautifully written book with illustrations that capture the wonder, awe, and spirit of mankind and purity of youth."

"This is a beautifully written book that can be enjoyed for all ages. Highly recommend."
