Books By Kaitlin
Winter’s Gift is a vibrantly illustrated children’s book about an Indigenous girl who finds awe in the resting and waiting that winter teaches us and shares with her friends how Creator’s gift of gratitude can transform the way we see the world.
In Living Resistance, Curtice teaches that resistance is for every human who longs to see their neighbors' holistic flourishing. Curtice explores four "realms of resistance"--the personal, the communal, the ancestral, and the integral--and shows how these realms overlap and why all are needed for our liberation.
