StoryWalk

Let’s Go! / haw êkwa! by Julie Flett

Let’s Go! is an extraordinary book that celebrates skateboarding, family, and community, from beloved Cree-Métis author, illustrator, and artist Julie Flett, a winner of the New York Times / New York Public Library Best Illustrated Children’s Book Award.

Every day, a little boy watches kids pass by on skateboards, and dreams of joining them. One day, his mother brings a surprise: her old skateboard, just for him! haw êkwa! Let’s go! Together, they practice on the sidewalk, at the park, in Auntie’s yard—everywhere. But when it comes time to try the skatepark, the skateboarders crash down like a waterfall. Can he find the confidence to join them?
