Description

A VERY FAMOUS AMERICAN INDIAN LEGEND/TALE!

Book is in excellent condition!

Tip Top Pre-loved copy.

Inside incription on the inside cover reads:

Dear Joshua,

Every Canadian student has heard this Indian legend several times by the time he/she has completed Grade 6. I hope you enjoy it! Barbara

P.S - These Indians lived on the Pacific Coast, in British Columbia

WINNER OF THE IODE BOOK AWARD AND THE AMELIA FRANCES HOWARD GIBBON MEDAL FOR ILLUSTRATION GIVEN BY THE CANADIAN ASSOCIATION OF CHILDREN'S LIBRARIANS.

"Elizabeth Cleaver brought to her work the sensibility of a fine artist and an inherent understanding of the child's view of the world. The children of Canada are unquestionably the richer for (her) achievements." - The Children's Book News (Toronto)

According to Canadian Indian legend, when an old man's sight was restored by a Loon he gave the bird his precious shell necklace as a reward. That is why the loon has a white collar and speckles on its back.


Elizabeth Cleaver's rich and beautiful style of picture-making gives new visual excitement to the splendors of the British Columbia landscape, and to the magic of this Indian legend.

   

Elizabeth Cleaver is one of the great names in children's literature, and "The Loon's Necklace" is just one example of her exquisite work. This retelling of an ancient American Indian myth is appropriate for children of all ages, and should be on every parent's "to give" list.
