Myths and Legends of Haida Indians of the Northwest: The Children of the Raven

Rating:
Summary: Excellant, intricate drawings
Review: This book was given to me when I was a young child. It helped me to tap into my ancestral roots as a Haida descendant. I have always loved the intricate drawings and artwork of my tribe, the Haida. I now use the book to share my heritage with classrooms of young children. I have also used the book to prepare for a presentation to adults on totem poles. The book is all in black and white. It is mostly drawings with written text of Haida legends interspersed. I would recommend this book to parents who wish to expose their children to native artwork and styles. The art of the Pacific Northwest is very distinctive, and this book is a handy educational tool to use when sharing Haida art with young and old alike.
