Raven Steals A Star

Utterly magical and filled with a rare, plainspoken and disarming wanderlust, Raven Steals a Star by Kellie Takahashi is a lyrical masterpiece. Beautifully and brightly illustrated by Frank Salcido, this fabled and inspired myth takes up where a folktale leaves off. Poetic in all the right ways, young readers will revel in how the night sky sparks a timeless imagination and how a band of villagers will celebrate life and the majestic hours of darkness. In the Tlingit village, Raven, a Tlingit spirit steals a star. In due course and all fairness, Eagle, another spirit, takes the star back from Raven’s lair, and flings it back to the nighttime sky as a flickering ember that glows and warms the heart much like a distant memory.
