Seven stories from three different Native American tribes--Coushatta Creek, Navajo, and Tsimshian -- explain the ways of the world and why certain animals have stripes while others have wings, feathers and tiny feet. Each story has a message and an easily understood moral, which can be summarized by saying, we live together, not apart. Dazzlingly illustrated by Ashley Wolff (Doctor Bird) with linoleum block prints highlighted with watercolor that give the art a shimmering and vibrant presence.
