Patrick Dallabetta's children's book is an adaptation of Edward Kennard's Hopi fable about the battle to save a Hopi Indian village from plunder. The original story, written in 1939, was adapted to include the adventures of Thomas Polywetewa, a young Hopi boy, and his field mouse best friend Tusan Homichi. How can Thomas and his pal Tusan work together to help his tribe survive the wrath of an enemy that could eliminate a major food source for his people of Second Mesa in Northern Arizona? The story explores aspects of the fascinating culture of the Hopi Indians. This wonderful children's book is available from most major book outlets and is the first of several stories that explore the adventures of the young Hopi boy Thomas as he grows up and learns about his own cultural heritage.
