Fantastic adaptation of the raven myth. I really like that it sticks to one tribe‘s version, is by an indigenous author, and has some great non-fiction information and photographs at the end. The illustrations of people were not very appealing to me, and that is the sole reason I gave it four stars instead of five.

A book by a Tlingit author, Maria Williams, and Jicarilla Apache/Jemez Pueblo illustrator. I‘m highly critical of the appropriation of indigenous stories. This book is great. Sad how rare it is to find books by us, about us. Our American Indian Ed. Camp director bought copies of these for the kids and we combined it with an art project (suggested by Blick) where I encouraged the kids to illustrate their stories. Turned out super cool.
