The Water Walker by Joanne Robertson
4.0

Age: Preschool-2nd grade
Activism: Water conservation
Culture: Ojibwe, Canada

A compelling story written about Nokomis Josephine Mandamin of the Ojibwe nation and her efforts to spread awareness of threats to our precious water supply. Inspiring others to join her, Nokomis has walked around all the Great Lakes seven times and across the nation for her love of water. While the story itself is interesting, Robertson creates an engaging movement of the plot to highlight the challenges and perseverance of Nokomis.
