What Parents Should Know
Sensitive Topics
The book is secular and celebratory. While it uses animals to represent Indigenous peoples, which may prompt discussion about representation and the diversity within Native American cultures, the approach is respectful and focuses on tangible traditions rather than trauma or conflict. The resolution is peaceful and educational.
