Beschreibung
Keet, a ten-year-old Tlingit Indian boy, stows away for a voyage on his father's canoe . . . and soon finds himself caught in the middle of a wild seastorm. The story carries him far from his home village, and when he makes land, he winds up right in the middle of a dangerous dispute between two Indian clans. The story of how he copes with these surprises and extricates himself from danger is dramatic and unforgettable. And it s mostly true. Roy Peratrovich here builds a wonderful children s tale on the bones of a story his own grandfather passed down. His accompanying illustrations bring the people and landscapes of Alaska to say nothing of the adventures! to stunning life, drawing young readers into a long-gone time when the whims of nature and man could suddenly test a boy s courage.
