You Hold Me Up by Monique Gray Smith, Danielle Daniel

kayleeacton's review against another edition

5.0

You Hold Me Up is a story all about building relationships and building people up. It takes respect, love, and empathy to create a relationship that hold a person up. This is an amazing book to have in a classroom, especially at the beginning of the year. In a time where we are nervous to start school and meet new people, this would be a great book to start friendships and new conversations.

People can be a support for each other. Plus representation for indigenous people.
