Description

With rich, spacious oil paintings that bring the grandeur of the Southwest to life, “Akiak” creator Robert J. Blake has crafted a moving story about the powerful spirit of a Native American boy, and the equally powerful spirit of his people. Wild Yusi, thoughtless Yusi, crazy Yusi thinks the village -- and the canyon itself -- is his, scrawling his mark everywhere: on desks at school, buildings, and even trees. “Yudonsi” (“you-don’t-see”) the villagers begin calling him. Yudonsi’s arrogance knows no bounds until the day he climbs the canyon wall to paint his mark where everyone must see it, and winds up facing the anger of the canyon and sky, and the threat it poses to the entire village. Full-color illustrations. Reinforced library binding.
