5.0 out of 5 stars Beautiful and haunting
Elizabeth Cleaver is one of the great names in children's literature, and "The Loon's Necklace" is just one example of her exquisite work. This retelling of an ancient American Indian myth is appropriate for children of all ages, and should be on every parent's "to give for Christmas" list.

3.0 out of 5 stars A Beautiful Tale
An old woman tricks a blind man. The blind man feels he is useless to his family. His friend, Loon, knows his sadness and comes to help.

"O Loon I am old and blind. My family are starving and I can't feed them. I do not ask to be young, but I would not be so helpless if I could see. I would give my most precious possession to see again."
