Summary
Details

This book is written to help children embrace their Native identity while healing from trauma, hurt, racism, and colonization. Topics covered include living away from Birth Family, expressing feelings in healthy ways, physical and sexual abuse, death and grief, addictions, colonization, racism, and building a stronger Native identity. As many sensitive topics are addressed, this healing guide is intended for adults to read with Indigenous children. Adults and parents will also learn how to engage children in sensitive, difficult, and confusing conversations.

Caregivers, parents, grandparents, foster parents, therapists, teachers, and other people working with Native children, are encouraged to utilize strategies outlined in this culturally sensitive, and age-appropriate book. This healing guide is written for Indigenous children between 8 and 12 years of age.

By reading this book with children, holistic healing can happen. A more loving and trusting relationship can develop between children and their caregivers. Practical and culturally sensitive ways of healing physically, emotionally, Spiritually, and socially are outlined in detail. Realistic examples are also provided to help children self-regulate and express their upset feelings in healthy ways.

This book is founded on knowing that Native children are often misunderstood, misplaced, confused, abused, silenced, and hurt. Building a solid sense of self-worth as proud Native children, who are Indigenous to this land, is critical in helping our children heal and flourish.
