Description

鈥淎 satisfying ending ensures this nighttime adventure will soothe even the wildest child.鈥� Kirkus Reviews

An exuberant celebration of the Buffalo鈥檚 return to the wild.

Since Declan was born, his kokum has shared her love of Buffalo through stories and art. But Declan longs to see real Buffalo. Then one magical night, herds of the majestic creatures stampede down from the sky. That鈥檚 when things really get wild!

Azby Whitecalf鈥檚 playful illustrations add to the joy and reverence in Deidre Havrelock鈥檚 picture book debut. A reprinting of the Buffalo Treaty and an author鈥檚 note describe the importance of Buffalo to Indigenous Peoples and efforts to revitalize the species.
