It's Carole Lindstrom, so I knew it was going to be incredible, and it was. Bridget George's illustrations were the perfect structure for Lindstrom's beautifully lyrical and powerful words. I am so glad I know about Autumn Peltier now and will tell everyone I know.

I went to a book reading Carole Lindstrom did for Water Warrior and she told the story of the real Autumn Peltier and her writing process for the book and it really set this book apart for me.
Linstrom's Children's books really push the message home about what many indigenous people are facing around the world with water rights, land rights, and wildlife protection. Autumn Peltier, Water Warrior was no different in its message.
As per usual, the art is amazing in the book! The writing is understandable for kids especially when tied in with the amazing illustrations, even when tackling the complex subjects involved. Autumn Peltier, Water Warrior is another amazing release for Carole Lindstrom in my opinion.

the words in this story were beautiful. I enjoyed it, but boy the sound effects and overly produced music on this audio book really ruined it for me. I would have loved just the narrator.

I got chills reading this. The illustrations are gorgeous and it tells a much needed story. I’m glad picture books like this one exist today.

Carole Lindstrom once again conveys with warmth and beauty the importance of young peoples’ voices at the helm of climate activism and indigenous cultures. I listened to the audiobook and enjoyed the water sounds and music accompanying the narration, although at times perhaps due to the sound engineering/balance the background was a bit too loud. I definitely plan to re-read when I have access to the visual book so that I can appreciate the illustrations. Lindstrom's books are continuously proving to be important contributions to children’s literature!
