When Raven fills the world with creatures, a song of joy bursts from his throat and brings everything to life. But as time passes, his song is droned by shouting as people greedily capture and kill the living things around them - and with an angy shriek he hides the shining sun away, leaving the people below to freeze in darkness. How his son, Little Darkness, brings light and the Raven's song back to the world is beautifully told and illustrated in an original story woven from Native Alaskan folklore

In Children Just Like Me: Our Favorite Stories, we meet real children from around the world who introduce us to the stories that are favorites in their countries. From Erdene, who lives on the Mongolian steppes, to Meena in rural India and Houda in urban Morocco come tales of dazzling horsemanship, the birth of great gods, and the building of palaces to rival paradise. As we read about the characters and images of different cultures, we realize that though our environments are richly diverse, our stories contain what we share -- human fears and ambitions, values, and humor. This is a book from real children and for real children everywhere.
