librarianryan 's review for:
Forever Cousins
by Laurel Goodluck
emotional
hopeful
informative
fast-paced
This was a great story. When I opened the pages, I was not expecting to hear a US indigenous story. This is about to cousins who live in the city, and one moves back to the “rez”. Will they still be friends? will they still like each other? The story is approachable to all with feelings of being “away” from family. What is interesting is the information in the back where the author talks about the Indian Relocation Act of 1956 which was pitched as a jobs act but was a way of assimilating native culture. This was a fantastic book both in story and education and I would be proud to put it on my library selves.
