The writing here and there struck me as a little odd, but overall I really enjoyed it! A nice heartfelt story with a loving family, a boy and girl pairing who DON'T end up together, and a fantastic little dog. This teaches the importance of community, tradition/ancestry, and being brave. It also shows just how important the Indigenous people are for the communities and lands around us (and a bit of how discriminated against they were and still are)

but also, HOW could you make me think the dog wasn't gonna come back!!
