      A simple rhyme that is just beautiful. The illustrations are a perfect match. This book showcases two languages, English and plains Cree. I have no idea how to pronounce any of the Cree words, but it looks like a beautiful language I would love to learn.
    • 4/5
      "Little you / little wonder / Little wish / gentle thunder / You are mighty / you are small / You are ours / after all." So begins this poetic Canadian board book, which pairs a simple but evocative text from Dogrib author Richard Van Camp with beautifully stylized artwork from Cree-Metis illustrator Julie Flett. Words and pictures both celebrate the wonder of this child, clearly the center of his parents' world...Having enjoyed other books from both Van Camp and Flett, I approached Little You with every expectation of enjoying it, and I was not disappointed. The text works very well as a read-aloud, something that is particularly desirable in a board book such as this, aimed at very young children, and the illustrations are lovely - simple and stylized, but also expressive - working very well in conjunction with the text. Recommended to those in the market for a celebratory board book featuring rhyming text and gorgeous artwork, as well as to those seeking children's books created by Native/First Nations authors and artists.
