An encounter with a pheasant (which may or may not be sleeping)
takes a surprising turn in this sweetly serious and funny story of
a Native American boy and his grandma "Pull over, Grandma! Hurry!"
Johnny says. Grandma does, and Johnny runs to show her what he
spotted near the ditch: a sleeping pheasant. What Grandma sees is a
small feathery hump. When Johnny wants to take it home, Grandma
tries to tell him that the pheasant might have been hit by a car.
But maybe she could use the feathers for her craftwork? So home
with Grandma and Johnny the pheasant goes . . . It's hard to say
who is most surprised by what happens next-Grandma, Johnny, or the
pheasant. But no one will be more delighted than the reader at this
lesson about patience and kindness and respect for nature, imparted
by Grandma's gentle humor, Johnny's happy hooting, and all the
quiet wisdom found in Cheryl Minnema's stories of Native life and
Julie Flett's remarkably evocative and beautiful illustrations.
