Watakame's Journey,
By Christopher Boehm (Santa Fe, nm USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Watakame's Journey: The Story of the Great Flood and the New World (Hardcover)
As a cultural anthropologist, I must give this book a rave review. It is lucidly written, totally available for the age group for which it is intended, and there is a perfect mesh between the clear prose and the gorgeous Huichol yarn paintings that illustrate it. While this book is perfectly accessible to children, it also provides an excellent read for the adult who is reading it to them! It also has the advantage of being anthropologically authentic. --- Christopher Boehm, Director, the Jane Goodall Research Center, University of Southern California.

watakames journey the story of the great flood and the new w,
By Rita Lambros (Salt Lake City, UT USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Watakame's Journey: The Story of the Great Flood and the New World (Hardcover)
I found this book in preparation for teaching a yarn painting project to my elementary and middle-school art students. The story is a wonderful creation myth, and beautifully illustrated with photos of the yarn paintings that were designed for it. In addition to being a great story, the book gives insight into the cultural and spiritual traditions of the Huichol Indians in Western Mexico.
