School Library Journal - 06/01/2025 PreS-Gr 4—A beautiful glimpse into Native storytelling traditions and intergenerational family ties. Inspired by Lamb-Cason's own kin, the story is told from the perspective of a young Indigenous girl traveling with her grandmother for a visit to the reservation. While journeying, Grandma tells of Grandmother Moon, the mother of all beings on Earth, a constant, benevolent protector and watcher. The Algonquin belief system is faithfully portrayed (Lamb-Cason is an enrolled member of the Schaghitoke Nation), with helpful back matter included for those interested in learning more. Earthy watercolor illustrations ground the book in the natural world that is at its heart. VERDICT A solid choice for libraries needing books on Indigenous populations or looking for an introduction to Native belief systems.—Maria Bohan - Copyright 2025 Publishers Weekly, Library Journal and/or School Library Journal used with permission.
