Description
This beautifully illustrated picture book introduces readers to one of America's favorite poems, "The Song of Hiawatha". Illustrated by Susan Jeffers, it weaves together oral traditions of American Indian culture to present a charming and hypnotic account of Hiawatha's boyhood.
With exquisite detail, the book brings to life the natural world and the ways of animals, as taught by Hiawatha's grandmother. The illustrator's careful research is evident, making this a truly special picture book for all ages.
A note at the beginning explains the background to the poem, adding context to this stunning picture book.
