What a great book! It comes with 2 copies of a study guide. Different versions of the Salmon People legend have been told for centuries by many tribes of Northwest Coast Indians. All express the belief that animals have spirits, like people, and can move freely between animal and human realms, choosing to feed humans when we approach them with proper respect and ceremony. Based upon anthropologist Franz Boas' accounts and interviews with Tsimshian elders. Duane Pasco's art enlivens the myth. Proceeds of the sale of this book benefit environmental education and preservation.
