Description:
<p><strong>A <em>New York Times</em> and CBC Books bestselling #OwnVoices love letter from an Indigenous mother to her new baby, new from celebrated author Tasha Spillett and 2021 Caldecott winning illustrator Michaela Goade, that honors the beauty of a little one's arrival</strong></p>

<p>Drawing from Indigenous creation stories and traditional teachings and illustrated in dazzling watercolors, <em>I Sang You Down from the Stars</em> is a tribute to the bond between mother and child.</p>

<p>The narrator gathers gifts for a medicine bundle in anticipation of her baby’s birth; a fluffy white eagle plume, bunches of cedar and sage, a quilted star blanket, and a small stone from the river. When the baby arrives, the mother shares the bundle with her child and reveals the importance of each item inside. But when her family comes to meet the new arrival, she realizes the baby arrived with gifts of its own and that the baby is also a sacred bundle: a baby bundle.</p>

<p>Writing in simple, lyrical text, author Tasha Spillett draws from her cultural heritage in order to celebrate Indigenous traditions and the universal nature of a mother’s love, with stunning art by the 2021 Caldecott medal winner for <em>We Are Water Protectors</em>, Michaela Goade.</p>
