Allen Sockabasin is a Passamaquoddy who devotes much of his time to teaching and preserving the Passamaquoddy language. A master musician, he has written, performed, and recorded Passamaquoddy stories and songs. He has been a tribal governor, a member of the tribal council, director of child welfare for his tribe, and a health educator. In 2010, he received the Sampson Center Catalyst for Change Award, which recognizes those who work for human and civil rights in Maine. His is the father of five grown children and a young son named Zoo Sap. Rebekah Raye is an artist beloved for her bird and animal paintings and sculpture,derived from her affinity with the natural world around her studio in East BlueHill, Maine. In Rebekah’s words, “My early interest in animals of all kindscontinues to be the focus ofmy painting and sculpture. Our pet chickens, geese, and cats—as well as thewild fox, bobcat,crows, and deer—are my inspiration. The more I learn about the animals Ipaint, the more I understand how we are all related.” Rebekah’s award-winningchildren’s books include The Very BestBed, Bear-ly There, The Secret Pool, and Swimming Home, all published by Tilbury House.

"This delightful story is wonderful example of both thesubtle directness and the deep awareness of our relation to the natural worldthat characterizes the very best American Indian traditional storytelling. Allen’s voice is both gentle and strong. I can’t think of a book I could recommendmore highly for anyone who wants to give a young reader a true picture of theNative way of seeing, teaching, and understanding."
