Join Kona, a young boy from the city, on a heartwarming journey to reconnect with his roots and the beauty of the rez.
Raised with stories of the land and its teachings, Kona and his family make a long-awaited trip to visit their relatives and learn from the wisdom passed down through generations.

From the moment they arrive, Kona is immersed in a world where every animal, every tree, and every star carries a deep lesson. With his Uncle and Auntie, Kona learns from the bear's courage, the buffalo's respect, the beaver's wisdom, and many more teachings shared by his family and the land. Along the way, he discovers the significance of humility from the wolf, honesty from Sabe (Bigfoot), and love from the eagle, all while bonding with his siblings, cousins, and elders.

As Kona experiences the wonders of the rez-picking berries, riding horses, and learning about the world around him-he discovers not just the beauty of the land but also the strength of family and tradition. Each day on the rez brings him closer to understanding who he is and where he comes from, with the love and wisdom of his community to guide him.

My Name Is Kona is a beautifully told story about family, culture, and the teachings of the land. It's perfect for young readers who are discovering the importance of nature, respect, and the lessons we learn from those who came before us. Whether you're seeking to teach children about indigenous culture or simply share an inspiring story, this book is sure to leave a lasting impression.
