Description
Illus. in full color. This story of how the Rainbow Crow lost his sweetvoice and brilliant colors by bringing the gift of fire to the other woodland
animals is "a Native American legend that will be a fine read-aloud because of
the smooth text and songs with repetitive chants. The illustrations, done in a
primitive style, create a true sense of the Pennsylvania Lenape Indians and
their winters."-- "School Library Journal.
