Books by Karlene Harvey
In this beautiful picture book, Walaas and her dzi'i (grandmother) take a fishing boat to their family’s reserve, Kitkatla, for spring break, where Walaas enjoys spending time with family, eating traditional foods and wandering the shoreline. Even though she’ll have to leave, she knows she’ll always belong there.
