If any of my #midwintersolace friends or any of my Litsy friends could use a new perspective on the darker colder days we‘ve been having, Buffy Sainte-Marie‘s words and music and Julie Fleet‘s artwork are really helping me with that this morning. #naturalitsy #hyggehugs

Buffy Sainte-Marie says writing the song that has been made into this picture book was like “taking photos with my heart of the things that I see on the reserve.” Cree-Métis illustrator Julie Flett has contributed her gorgeous collage artwork. Sheet music is included at the end. This book is a celebration of nature and community, and a treasure for readers of all ages. #Canadian #Indigenous #kidlit

Lindy @LeahBergen In the notes at the back, Sainte-Marie and Flett say that they wrote and illustrated this book while in Alberta. 1y

In every dream, I can smell the sweetgrass burning.
And in my heart, always hear the drum…

Once, I saw the summer flowers turn the fields to sun.
Up and down the mountainside, I watched the summer run.
