When the people of Earth begin to take more than they need, pollute the waters, and start acting mean trouble abounds when the rain stops falling. But who will save the day? This is a unique retelling of an ancient tale from the Yoruba people of West Africa. It is a story of love, courage, hope and mindfulness towards Mother Earth and each other. The author has included notes and mindful activities for teachers, parents and children. "A warm, traditional myth filled with gorgeous, colorful artwork, simply told in rhyme, with a message of courage, hope, and love for community and Earth... simply delightful!" - Bettina Joy de Guzman, historian and multi-instrumental composer "A beautiful story! We have a similar story here in the Pacific NW in which Raven brings back the sun. All of Mother Earth's Elements are equally Sacred and important. Both the drawings and story line are very appealing. I think both children and adults will enjoy this story and learn many things from it. Long ago, in the village, stories like this were told over and over. Unto the Seventh Generation" - Robin Tekwelu's Youngblood, author, Path of the White Wolf
