BUYING ADVISORY: EL - ADVISABLE

Fierce Aunties - they are women you can look up to, who know you and want the best for you. Sometimes you are related to them but you don't have to be. They cheer on your successes, they teach about your life and culture, and they really listen.
I loved this book. It made me think about all the strong women in my life who were there for me. What a great reflection. And a child reading this story can recognize these women, too. I'm sure we all have them (and take them for granted). Set within Indigenous culture, the illustrations often reflect those women, but women of other races and cultures are also represented.
