“A heartwarming and beautifully crafted book that shares the joy of Christmas through the lens of Anishinaabe culture.” —STARRED REVIEW, School Library Journal
“The tender reunion with Kookom (Grandmother) and Mooshom (Grandfather) includes storytelling, sipping tea and eating bannock, singing, and giving gifts. Indigenous illustrator Hill’s cartoon art brings warmth and heart to Kinew’s simple narrative. . . . The sense of cultural pride and holiday joy will resonate with many young readers and their families. A sweet window into Anishinaabe Christmas traditions.” —Kirkus Reviews
