Although warned by their parents never to play out in the open where predators might surprise them, two rabbit sisters become so involved in their games that they forget to be careful. When a giant owl seizes them, the sisters struggle to be free, eventually getting loose and fleeing from their enemy. The owl's greed, in refusing to choose just one of them as a target, because he wants to eat both, works in the rabbits' favor, and they are eventually able to destroy the owl, by pushing a boulder onto him... The Owl and the Two Rabbits is the second picture-book retelling of a traditional Inuit folktale that I have read from Inuit author Nadia Sammurtok, following upon The Caterpillar Woman. I found the story engaging, and the accompanying artwork from illustrator Marcus Cutler colorful and cute. Generally speaking, I tend to enjoy everything put out by the publisher of this book, the Inuit-owned, Nunavut-based Inhabit Media, and The Owl and the Two Rabbits was no different. I hope they continue to produce beautiful books with an Inuit cultural theme for many years to come! Recommended to all young folklore enthusiasts, and to anyone looking for children's books with an Inuit cultural background. Zeige 2 von 2 keine Rezensionen | Rezension hinzufügen
