Remember by Joy Harjo

US Poet Laureate Joy Harjo's iconic poem Remember, illustrated by Caldecott Medalist Michaela Goade, invites young readers to pause and reflect on the wonder of the world around them, and to remember the importance of their place in it.

Remember the sky you were born under,
Know each of the star's stories.
Remember the moon, know who she is.
Remember the sun's birth at dawn,
That is the strongest point of time.

So begins the picture book adaptation of the renowned poem that encourages young readers to reflect on family, nature, and their heritage. In simple and direct language, Harjo, a member of the Mvskoke Nation, urges readers to pay close attention to who they are, the world they were born into, and how all inhabitants on earth are connected. Michaela Goade, drawing from her Tlingit culture, has created vivid illustrations that make the words come alive in an engaging and accessible way.

This timeless poem paired with magnificent paintings makes for a picture book that is a true celebration of life and our human role within it.

Joy Harjo is a Muscogee (Creek) Nation member. She is the author of nine collections of poetry, the most recent of which is An American Sunrise, as well as one memoir, Crazy Brave. When the Light of the Earth Was Subdued, Our Songs Came Through, and Live Peoples, Living Words were among the anthologies she edited. In 2019, she was named poet laureate of the United States, and she now lives in Tulsa, Oklahoma, as a Tulsa Artist Fellow.
