Reviews for Heroes of the Water Monster

"""Thought-provoking and full of heart; a genuinely pleasurable read."" -- Kirkus Reviews (starred review) ""Navajo author Young interweaves the atrocities of the Trail of Tears, Navajo mythology, and modern issues of climate change and water consumption in an action-filled adventure featuring two appealing Indigenous protagonists. Young readers are faced with big questions about identity, justice, and inherited trauma."" -- Horn Book Magazine"
