This book is about a father and his son of a native Indian tribe who are out on the land one day. The kid is curious about the land and why things are the way they are, so the father gives these great stories that have been last down on why the earth is what is is and why we do things like eat certain animals but now others and why some structures such as a mountain in a the south is as big as it is. ( ) This book is about a boy and his uncle. His uncle tells him all the stories of sacred places across the country and what they mean and how the were created according to Native American culture. This is a great poetry book for kids to read and learn about Native American culture! I really like the map included because I got to see how close I am to a lot of places they talked about in the book! I really enjoyed this book because it talked about several places in Arizona that I’m very familiar with. I hadn’t heard about the creation stories that Native Americans associate with those landmarks so that was very interesting. This book was a great window into Native American tradition and perspective. Summary: This book was alright, it was my least favorite out of the 6 traditional tales we were assigned to read. It mainly focused on the special places that hold religious or spiritual or traditional significance to the Native Americans. One interesting aspect was that the illustrations were so beautiful- aside from a rather advanced literary content, the pictures would definitely help capture the attention of a younger reader! Personal commentary/ reflection: It was nice to read a traditional tale book that shifted away from the folklore content that I was reading so much of, however I didn't find myself super interested in reading about the geological places of significance to the Native American tribes in this book. The picture were beautiful though! keine Rezensionen | Rezension hinzufügen
