This is a great companion to Dreaming in Indian (which I also enjoyed but it's great to have a volume focused on women)! Like that book, the mixed media format reminds me of a zine or yearbook, in a good way. It's a great way to just get drawn in and encounter a lot of voices, with a combination of humor, insight, anger, sorrow, beauty...often all in the same piece.
Although I do think the large-size format works for this, I think librarians might need to do something extra to boost this to teen readers–I know often older kids find that large books like this come across as looking like baby picture books, but I think once they get past the size, the style and content has a lot to offer.
