This picture book is a story from the author's own life about a christmas when she was a child. Her family had taught her to put others needs before her own and as a child it can be really hard to see that. I think that this book would be good to have in primary classrooms as it teaches empathy towards others. in addition to the story, the illustrations can help break down negative stereotypes about indigenous people and their experiences Virginia recounts her childhood memories and the irony of Christmas wishes. This book brings together multiple cultures and traditions: life on the Reservation, Santa Claus, holiday generosity with family and religious expectations. Virginia's father is the priest, but she'd love to have the fur coat in the donation box. A Christmas twist brings a different coat to her. Age: primary / intermediate Genre: realistic fiction This book was a beautiful story about life on the reservation and the traditions during Christmas time. Santa comes and there are commonalities of ways we celebrate Christmas, but there were also other cultural aspects. It is a great story to have during the holidays. nessuna recensione | aggiungi una recensione
