Bud Finds Her Gift

Bud Finds Her Gifts by Naoko Stoop, When young Bud sees people bustling around, intent on their chores and their screens, she is certain they must be doing important things-and she wants to be included. But wise Nokomis, her grandmother, shows her that there is a different way to find belonging, one that relies on stillness and observing the natural world. As Bud discovers the freely given gifts of the Earth, she wonders if she has something important to give back: What is her gift?

Infused with warmth, humor, and insight, and beautifully illustrated by Naoko Stoop, the first picture book by renowned author and Indigenous ecologist Robin Wall Kimmerer inspires readers to treasure nature's generosity and the gifts each one of us can share with the Earth. Hardcover, 40 pages. Recommended for ages 4 to 8 years old
