Produktbeschreibung

"Alan Salazar delivers yet another fun, educational, and beautifully illustrated book that will captivate readers of all ages. While these new and re-imagined stories are unique to the author, they remain true to the spirit of his ancestors. The accompanying history helps readers to contextualize the stories and connect with the Chumash people. Additionally, with her use of earth pigments respectfully sourced from the author's ancestral territory, Mona Lewis's vibrant and imaginative illustrations beautifully root these stories in place, making the book ever more meaningful." -Magdalyne Romero Director, Education and Cultural Learning Department, Fernandeño Tataviam Band of Mission Indians "Salazar's clever storytelling, interwoven with brief but insightful lessons on Chumash history, make this an excellent book for readers of all ages. Lewis's imaginative illustrations bring the stories to life, and the included art lessons allow readers to engage directly with Chumash artistic traditions." Brian Barbier Anthropology Department Chair, Santa Barbara Museum of Natural History "Master storyteller Alan Salazar, along with the talented artist and illustrator Mona Lewis, provides a captivating glimpse into the life and culture of the Chumash people. The book delves into the past, present, and potential future of the Chumash nation. The narratives make you feel as if Alan and Mona are personally sharing these historical Chumash stories right in front of you. Chumash Stories is an excellent read from start to finish."
