"Jennings' carefully crafted text weaves a lyrical story that blends the present with the rich heritage of the Paiute culture. She also includes comprehensive backmatter that offers parents and teachers historical and scientific facts. Saroff's luminous use of color and her attention to details complement the story...A story that honors both tradition and its young protagonist's desire to live in the present. -Kirkus Reviews
