This heartwarming picture book follows young Clara as she spends her first summer away from home on the Standing Rock Reservation with her Uŋčí and cousin. When her Uncle Louie arrives with a family tipi passed down through generations, Clara begins a journey of discovery, tradition, and connection. From painting spirit symbols to sleeping under the stars, the tipi becomes a powerful symbol of family and Lakota heritage.
