I loved this gentle picture-book lullaby written by Tonya Simpson. It's a celebration of the plants and animals of the Prairies. Having spent time in the praries out West this book reminded me of their beauty. This book is also a meditation on the sacred, ancestral connections between Indigenous children and their Traditional Territories. And it calls all us non-indigenous individuals to remember to respect the land and one another. The text is tender and sweet, the way a lullaby should be and the arcylic paintings by Carla Joseph expresses the natural beauty of the Prairies in a stunning fashion. Both the author and illustator share Cree ancestry. ( )
