JULE BUCHHOLTZ lives in Brimley, Michigan with her husband, Larry, and canine companions. They are officially "empty nesters." Buchholtz earned both her Bachelor's degree in Education and Master's in Early Childhood Education from Central Michigan University. Julie has been in education in some form or another for much of her career. She currently works at Lake Superior State University. In her free time, she enjoys walking the shores of Lake Superior, making jewelry from items she finds along the beach, reading, writing, eating a really good dessert (creme brulee is her favorite), and practicing yoga.
"Who am I?" wonders one little girl. And with those three words her mama takes her on a journey, discovering the ways she is connected to the plants and animals around her, her present and her past, her ancestors, and the land she lives on--the whole of Mother Earth. Who Am I is an indigenous perspective on the ways the threads of our lives are woven in Earth's tapestry, the things that came before--and all that is yet to be. A lyrical look at the interconnectedness of life and a mother's tender love.
