Remember

About this book

Remember the sky that you were born under, know each of the star's stories. Remember the moon, know who she is. Remember the sun's birth at dawn, that is the strongest point of time. So begins the picture book adaptation of the renowned poem that invites young readers to pause and reflect on the wonder of the world. In simple and direct language, Joy Harjo, a member of the Mvskoke Nation, urges readers to pay close attention to who they are, the world they were born into, and how everyone on Earth is connected. Michaela Goade, drawing from her Tlingit culture, has created vivid illustrations that make the words come alive in an engaging and accessible way. A timeless poem paired with magnificent paintings makes for a picture book that is a true celebration of life and our human role within it. - Jacket flap.
