* "Goade's lush, brightly colored art vividly portrays the landscape."--Horn Book, starred review
* "A magical intergenerational story of gifts and cultural rituals shared between a grandmother and her granddaughter."
--Kirkus, starred review
* "Told in rhythm, song, and narrative, the language is rich and evocative--perfect for early ­elementary ­readers."--School Library Journal, starred review
* "The glowing pictures and supportive text encourage our stewardship of Mother Earth as Caldecott Medal winner Goade presents another important contribution to both environmental and cultural literature."
