Boozhoo.\nHello. \nIshpiming Migizi Kwe Nidizhinikaaz\nI am Julie Buchholtz or High Flying Eagle Woman. \nGnoozhekaaning Nindonjibaa\nI come from the Place of the Pike. \nMigizi Nidoodehm\nI am Eagle clan. \nI am fortunate to live along the shores of Lake Superior in the Upper Peninsula of Michigan. I feel the most grounded when I am immersed in nature\, especially when I stand on the earth where my ancestors walked before me. I am a proud member of the Bay Mills Tribe of Chippewa Indians. \nMy inaugural book\, Who Am I\, was published by Sleeping Bear Press/Cherry Lake Publishing and selected as a 2021 Own Voices/Own Stories Winner. Who Am I took me on a journey of self discovery\, a coming home of sorts to my native roots. It is about connection to one another and to Mother Earth. Little brown-skinned girl asks her mama a question that we often ask ourselves\, “Who am I?” Mama pulls her girl close and explains how she is connected to Mother Earth including the plants\, the organisms\, and the animals that inhabit Mother Earth. In the end\, the little brown-skinned girl understands her significance and that she isn’t so little after all. \nMy second book\, Mama’s Song serves as a prequel to Who Am I and led me further down the path of embracing my native heritage. It tells the story of the birth of the little brown-skinned baby. Mama has never felt such love before and thanks the Creator for such a gift. Mama’s Song is all about mama’s wish for her daughter to live the “good life” or mino bimaadiziwin. Readers are introduced to the Seven Grandfather Teachings of Wisdom\, Love\, Respect\, Courage\, Honesty\, Humility\, and Truth.
