Sinopsis

An Indigenous boy invites new friends to share in beloved traditions as he celebrates the joy of summer and his love for Earth and Creator in this picture book that revels in the warmth, light, and fun of the longest days of the year.

Bo, a proud Potawatomi boy, is excited to enjoy long summer days tending his garden, walking his dog, and playing in the river with his big sister, Dani. When he discovers that his family's favorite spot has been polluted with garbage, Bo realizes that caring for Earth is part of what makes summer special. And when he overcomes his shyness and invites others to join in, he discovers that summer's magic has even more surprises in store.

“Bo is short for saying Bodewadmi ndaw, which is ‘I am Potawatomi’ in our language. Bo is a celebration of Anishinaabe culture, from the way he wears his hair in a traditional braid to the way he shares the magic of summer and honors Earth by caring for her as she cares for us.”—Kaitlin B. Curtice

Bo is nestled in bed on a warm night when he has a dream.
He is next to a lake, dancing under the bright light of
Grandfather Sun, spinning and singing a song of thanks.
Many of his friends are singing and dancing with him.

Soon animal relatives join the dance.
They all laugh and play in the water.

Bo wakes up and gives thanks. Migwetch,
Mamogosnan. Thank you, Creator.
