"The Powwow is a time-honored Native American custom. It is a celebration of life and spirituality, a remembrance of traditions, uniting a people through dance and ritual.

In its poetic verses, David Bouchard and Pam Aleekuk skillfully narrate the story of a mother's dedication to her roots and her efforts to impress upon her child the importance of culture and identity." -- publisher
