Campbell's rhythmic writing is wonderful, conveying important messages about the environment and family. Victor's vibrant renderings accompany the engaging text nicely. Bold illustrations portray elements such as weather, nature, and animals alongside evocative details like glowing skylines. ― Kirkus Reviews\

[An] evocative book that poetically explores how important it is for us to see ourselves as part of the land. Victor’s illustrations bring that world to life. ― The Globe and Mail\
Paired with illustrations by Carrielynn Victor, Stand Like a Cedar shines brightly, in both its text and artwork. ― Quill & Quire\
Nicola Campbell offers a poetic song about excursions into the wild throughout the seasons. Abundance, respect, gratitude and intergenerational closeness suffuse Campbell’s poem. Carrielynn Victor’s illustrations reflect a lovely diaphanous beauty. ― Toronto Star\
Exquisitely illustrated picture book...a tender evocation of the joys of nature and family, [and] a celebration of Indigenous language. Highly recommended. ― Calgary Herald\
