This touching story describes the use of the Native American
"talking stick" to facilitate communication through the unique
black and white painted pottery images created by the Mimbres
Indians of southwest New Mexico. Centered on the theme of caring,
it is the third in a series to help children learn how to develop
good character traits. In this story the Mimbres children discover
the enduring power of caring for each other and the members of
their pueblo. Innovative ideas along with daring and compassionate
actions help them earn the respect of their elders. The children's
continuing adventures are brought to life through the illustrated
scenes of every day activity as depicted on the pottery bowls by
Mimbres artists of a thousand years ago. Teachers, librarians,
parents and children of all ages will enjoy this pictorial
narrative. CARILYN ALARID and MARILYN MARKEL, twin sisters, are
dedicated to helping children learn how to have respect for
individual and cultural differences of all people. Carilyn is a
Behavior Consultant and synthesizes classroom instruction with
behavioral techniques to emphasize the importance of character
development in students. Marilyn teaches about the increasing need
to preserve and protect southwest New Mexico's cultural heritage.
Born and raised in New Mexico, these sisters have the utmost
respect for native cultures both past and present. Their previous
books in the "Mimbres Children" series, "Old Grandfather Teaches A
Lesson" and "Talks All Day Has The Courage To Speak," were also
published by Sunstone Press.
