Through words and images, this tender story from educator and healer Tanaǧidaŋ To Wiŋ Tara Perron, illustrated with evocative ledger-style artwork by Holly Young, highlights the treasures of an abundant prairie landscape.

Grandmother’s friends are the plants of her sacred garden. They are known as phežúta, or medicines. They help her heal herself and others. Grandmother’s understanding of these plants has been passed down from person to person for generations. Granddaughter cherishes these lessons and the gifts of phežúta. She is grateful to her grandmother for sharing her wisdom. Perhaps one day she too will walk in this sacred land with her own granddaughter.

Writer and educator Tanaǧidaŋ To Wiŋ Tara Perron is the author of Takóža: Walks with the Blue Moon Girl. She lives in St. Paul, Minnesota.

Dakota artist Holly Young creates in the traditional mediums of ledger art, beadwork, and quillwork. She lives in Bismarck, North Dakota.

Books will be available for purchase and signing at the event. Registration is encouraged, but not required.
