"Kam Brook Reedsy Discovery 5.0 out of 5 stars Beautiful cultural story! Reviewed in the United States on May 13, 2023 Condensed review: Gramma taught Kika how to dance to the drum song, and now it's Asha's turn to learn the heritage dance. In life, children must learn that success sometimes takes time to come. They must often put in time and practice to master a skill. Pick yourself up and try again when you fail. This story teaches children not to fear asking for help when hurt or something is broken. Family is there to provide comfort, love, guidance, and support! ""ASHA My First Pow Wow Dance"" is a lovely book spotlighting an important aspect of Native American culture. Maurizio gave 5 stars A great read, beautiful artwork, and inspiring message! Reviewed in Canada on April 26, 2023 I read this book with my 5 year-old and we both loved it! It's cute, fun and inspiring to watch Asha on her journey towards learning to dance. She never gave up even when the going got tough. I highly recommend this loveable book that you'll want to read again and again with your kids.: )"
