Based on a Blackfoot Indian legend, this story tells of how a boy from a starving tribe travels to the home of the Great Chief. When he arrives, he is rewarded with the gift of a creature to whom all of the living things he encounters have given a precious quality. While riding the horse back to his community, he crosses a river and the waters are sculpted into a great herd of horses to follow him home. Children will enjoy the striking illustrations in this handsome picture book, and may be aware of similar stories in the traditions of other cultures.
