When the Stars Came Home
Brittany Luby, illustrated by Natasha Donovan
Ojiig moves from the country to the city with his Anishinaabe mother and white father. In the unfamiliar urban environment, he misses the country landscape and its star-filled night sky. His mother makes a patchwork quilt while sharing stories about Ojiig’s ancestors. The completed quilt, with a large star at its center, offers comfort, and a visit from his grandparents helps Ojiig begin to feel warmer toward his new home.
