We All Play — Julie Flett

A joyous celebration of animals and all the ways they play, from the award-winning, critically acclaimed author and illustrator of Birdsong, Julie Flett.Animals love to play! In this sweetly simple and gorgeously illustrated picture book, Julie Flett offers a joyful romp through nature with an abundance of wild animals: birds who chase and chirp, whales who swim and squirt, and other familiar creatures from across North America. Animals Play shares the Cree teaching of wahkohtowin—interconnectedness and play—and includes Cree names for each animal at the end. A beautiful ode to the creatures we share our world with, Animals Play belongs on every nature shelf.PRAISE FOR JULIE FLETT’S BIRDSONGBoston Globe Horn Book Award Honor | American Indian Youth Literature Award Honor “Simple and profound.”—SCHOOL LIBRARY JOURNAL (Starred Review)“Emotionally stunning.”—KIRKUS REVIEWS(Starred Review)
