This was so good! This is the first short story collection I’ve read and I will definitely be picking up more. I loved the illustrations before every story and the incorporation of the Cherokee language. I like the premise of following the same family through almost 200 years. My favorites were Man Made Monsters, Snow Day, and Lens. And I love the relationship between the father and his children in Happily Ever After. I definitely recommend!
