  Not a single animal in the forest wanted to meet the Tiger. Let alone meet him, not even to hear his name. He was an evil beast who did not hesitate to prey on his fellow forest dwellers. Still fresh in the memory, how the Evil One mercilessly preyed on a mother goat who had just given birth. Unmitigated, the baby goat that had just been born and had not been able to bleat perfectly was also devoured. 
  Since then, the forest-dwelling animals have agreed to protect each other from the evil Tiger. Anyone who sees the Tiger must tell the others. Don't let the incident that happened to the mother and goat kid yesterday happen again. 
  As a result of this agreement, the tiger had not caught a single prey for days. He's been going back and forth, sneaking around without making a sound, and covering himself in mud and leaves to stink. And the adventure of the Kanchil begins.

  A thoughtful and heartfelt middle grade novel by American Indian Youth Literature Honor–winning author Christine Day (Upper Skagit), about a girl whose hopeful plans for Indigenous Peoples’ Day (and plans to ask her crush to the school dance) go all wrong—until she finds herself surrounded by the love of her Indigenous family and community at an intertribal powwow. 
  Wesley is proud of the poem she wrote for Indigenous Peoples’ Day—but the reaction from a teacher makes her wonder if expressing herself is important enough. And due to the specific tribal laws of her family’s Nation, Wesley is unable to enroll in the Upper Skagit tribe and is left feeling “not Native enough.” Through the course of the novel, with the help of her family and friends, she comes to embrace her own place within the Native community. 
  Christine Day's debut, I Can Make This Promise, was an American Indian Library Association Youth Literature Award Honor Book, was named a Best Book of the Year by Kirkus, School Library Journal, the Chicago Public Library, and NPR, and was also picked as a Charlotte Huck Honor Book. Her sophomore novel, The Sea in Winter, was an American Indian Library Association Youth Literature Award Honor Book, as well as named a Best Book of the Year by Kirkus and School Library Journal.  
  We Still Belong is an accessible, enjoyable, and important novel from an author who always delivers.
