"[The Spirit Giggles Within] demonstrates Littlechild�s determination. It�s a visual feast � a treat both for newcomers and those already aware of his concerns." - Candace Fertile, The Coastal Spectator

"Bold in size, color and image, [This Land is My Land] constitutes a stunning gallery of art by a Native American of singular vision... this volume offers itself as a bridge between the past's pain and the future's potential." - Publishers Weekly
