Self-help ✦ Penny’s Take
We Are Grateful Otsaliheliga
Traci Sorell · 2024
90/100
👍 Worth It
Four starred reviews and a shelf full of awards are not marketing noise here — they reflect a book that genuinely earns every one. Traci Sorell writes from inside the Cherokee Nation, the bilingual integration of language and syllabary is substantive rather than decorative, and the seasonal structure gives young readers a full-year window into a living culture. One of the clearest 'yes' votes in this batch.
