To date this is my favorite of the Native American legends books for children that I've read. I love the simple poetic writing, the storyline, the illustrations, and borders. Simply enchanting. I bought it for myself shortly after it was published, and I look forward to sharing it soon with my daughter.
The Star Maiden is an Ojibway tale about a star maiden who wants to find a perfect home. The Indian tribe welcomes the star maiden and hope she finds happiness and contentment among them in their restless world. A beautiful story that tells of a people long ago who’s lives and beliefs are very differently than those of today.
Beautiful book. Great for story telling and for reading to children when exploring different cultures. I would recommend this book.
Everything was good, as advertised.
A beautifully told story with illustrations to match. I would like to find out more about the illustrations and the borders - the sybolism, especailly.
