Heartwarming, comforting, and gorgeously illustrated, 'Grandmother Moon' tells of a young girl and her grandmother on their way to spend the weekend together. What follows is a beautiful introspection on the moon, ancestry, and Indigenous storytelling. The author writes that their own grandmother's story of the moon once 'transported me into the stars like magic' and that is *exactly* how this book feels.
Thank you to NetGalley and the author for providing me with a free eARC in exchange for an honest review.

What a lovely book to share the importance of the moon through the eyes of an indigenous granddaughter and grandmother who view the moon and Mother Earth with an especially feminist lens. Loved the watercolor illustrations and backmatter.

In this beautiful picture book, a young girl learns about grandmother moon from her grandmother.
Told with gorgeous illustrations and a lilting prose, this is a phenomenal picture book. I plan to add it to my elementary school library and recommend that other librarians do the same. The language used in Algonquin, and may be of particular interest to libraries in that area of the country. This is also a great fit for public libraries and personal collections.
Thank you to Broadleaf Books, Beaming Books, and Net Galley for the ARC. All opinions are my own.
