Review :
"Simple, yet powerful...This gentle book is inspiring for children and adults and is highly recommended to have at home and in public and school libraries."-- "Canadian Children's Book News, Red Leaf Literature selection" "Thoughtful and beautifully illustrated."-- "Canadian Teacher Magazine" "Lovely...A gentle message that shows how kindness connects us and reinforces our deep relations."-- "Toronto Star" "Using minimal text, the message of kindness is delivered in illustrations that are beautiful, colorful and detailed. This title is highly recommended for use in preschool and primary or elementary classrooms and libraries."-- "Must Read Literature" "Visually appealing at every turn and offering up details in clothing and surroundings, there is much to see here. The words inspire questions and memories about being kind in the world, and with family and friends."-- "Sal's Fiction Addiction" "Gentle...Notably centering Indigenous families and characters of color in personal and communal activities--and encouraging readers to evaluate their actions toward others."-- "Publishers Weekly" "A perfect addition to your bedtime routine, and would make a great gift for every teacher and librarian your child knows, so each school has a copy upon reopening."-- "them." "An accessible picture book that will work well as a read-aloud in a group or for quiet reading alone. Whether at home or in the classroom, its pleasing repetition of phrases. such as 'I am kind when' and 'I feel', will appeal to young readers and invite re-reading. Highly Recommended."-- "CM: Canadian Review of Materials" "Simple statements have the resonance of affirmations and establish a clear chain of connectedness...A panoply of Indigenous characters is featured in rich detail. A visual feast for families interested in seeing the Native world through small, kind deeds."-- "Kirkus Reviews"

    A Thrilling But Totally Believable Murder Mystery

    Read this in one evening. I had planned to do other things with my day, but it was impossible to put down. Every time I tried, I was drawn back to it in less than 5 minutes. I sobbed my eyes out the entire last 100 pages. Highly recommend!
