Having the book in both English and Plains Cree was very cool and I love when children's books are published (like the Beautiful Yetta books that are in English, Yiddish, and Spanish). I think it's something that needs to be implemented more often given the chance. Especially with languages that are not as widely known or spoken. 

The illustrations are beautiful and flowing and very fitting for the theme of the story.

Thank you to NetGalley and Orca Book Publishers for making this available in exchange for an honest review!
