'The Friendship Centre' is a fun and informative introduction to urban centres for Indigenous people. In the book, we follow a young boy named Matthew as he meets up with his uncle Hunter, who works at The Friendship Centre. We learn, as Matthew does, that the centre does an incredible amount of good work for Indigenous folks looking for community, including maintaining health care resources, a gym, various classes (including those teaching Indigenous languages), drumming groups, and more! I hadn't actually heard of formal centres like these, so it was really awesome to learn about.

Thank you to NetGalley and the author for providing me with a free eARC in exchange for an honest review.
