Description
Little You is a charming and heart-warming board book that welcomes a new baby into a family. Written by renowned author and storyteller Richard Van Camp and illustrated with creative flair by Julie Flett, this board book is a welcome addition to Indigenous family resources. Flett uses collage-like images of an infant who grows to be a toddler. This child is adored and loved by one or both parents on every other page. Simple rhyming text accompanies each image. The warm colour tones of orange, red, tan, grey and black set against a crisp white background in Flett's graphic styled images with rounded curves make this board book suitable for all families. The American Indian Library Association (AILA), an affiliate of the American Library Association, has selected Little You (2013) Orca Book Publishers, written by Richard Van Camp, illustrated by Julie Flett as the 2016 Best Picture Book. Highly recommended.
