A dazzling, own-voice Native Californian creation story "Waa'aka'
was born when the earth was soft and the waters were new. It was
the beginning of time." So begins Cindi Alvitre's vivid and
multifaceted telling of a traditional Tongva creation story from
Southern California. Waa'aka' follows the title character, a
beautiful bird who falls in love with Tamet, the sun, and tries to
follow him up to the sky. Accompanied by richly colorful
illustrations from Carly Lake, the book touches deftly on themes
like the unintended consequences of greed and the importance of
working together. A rendition of one of California's oldest tales,
Waa'aka' is a beautiful children's book in the classic style.
