Two American-Indian girls (Traditional Sister and Contemporary Sister) show their cultural traditions as the seasons change throughout the year. While many things have changed, their traditions stay the same after several generations.

I learned in my library science class of perception of information and something connected by watching a library webinar about reconciliation in the library. (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZquuPqCohsA&list=PLGvt9IyrGCa4xXalEwy7d60C0zkPn1rwP&index=2)
Native perception of information being land. (I've learned in class perception of information can be physical, economic, or philosophical - the webinar opened up another perspective) What I mean by this illustrates well in this book, for example knowing the history of their culture and family. They talk about seeing the shadbush blooms and other nature that can be viewed like those before could experience. The land perspective makes it a living and feeling experience, which this book shows perfectly.
Anyway... Just putting something together for myself...
Well illustrated and a family embraces tradition and remembers where they came from. Very loving and the past and present almost felt so well that they almost interact.
