This is a beautiful book, conveying the warmth, curiosity, and easy stillness that can exist in a relationship between a child and their grandparent. The simple story shows the healing power of returning to the place one first felt home and belonging, and sharing the stories with another. The spare text honors the act of remembering one's connectedness to land and history through the child's wonder at natural beauty, in the addition of Cree words and their meanings, and in the inclusion of the child and his grandfather at the community feast at the close of their visit.

Illustrations by Julie Flett invite the reader to pause and breathe, leaving room for conversation with young hearers about where they might find themselves in this story and what do they wonder about?
