I recently read a book that was illustrated by Danielle Daniel and thought the pictures were very sweet and cute. I came across this one on the library website, and thought I would give a story both written and illustrated by her a try.
Daniel's illustrations are sweet and cute and work incredibly well for the story. I actually like these illustrations even better than the other work I saw illustrated by her. The story is so lovely. Looking at different children through the Anishinaabe tradition of totem animals serves as a wonderful introduction to the concept. The author's note really brings it all together.
I definitely recommend this, whether you're specifically looking for a story about totem animals or a good picture book in general.

I do not often write book reviews on Goodreads, but this book was so beautiful -- both in writing and in illustration -- that I had to remark upon it. Stunning.
