| Description: |
The Native American tradition of the "give-away" takes a new form in this engaging dialogue between the Whooping Crane, the Snow Goose, Old Beaver, Grandmother Turtle, the Wind, the Ancient One, the Creator, and others. Readers learn that giving is more than just gifting; it is denying oneself so that another may have a better way. |
| Synopsis: |
Among the Northern Plains tribes, all of creation - humanity, animals, birds, insects and plants - are part of the sacred loop, and the birth of Jesus in a lowly stable, surrounded by animals, is easily retold in this tradition.' |
