I am so glad books like this exist; not only to protect indigenous/First Nation history but also to show that colonization never ended.

And I loved seeing Echo's character growth and her supportive and beautiful family. The artwork was lovely and done with a lot of sensitivity. 

Even though this was a short series, I hope this isn't the last we will hear from the author and artists!
