Description

A beautifully illustrated Alaska Native story of a young boy and his encounter with the fabled Fox Man, and how doing the right thing isnt always easy but important in the end.

Life is hard for Chia. His village doesnt have enough food and every day there are many chores to do. Chia always goes to bed hungry and tired, until one day in the middle of the night he wakes to a strange noise. He decides to investigate-and meets the legendary Fox Man. Will the Fox Man be able to help Chia and his village?

By the same team who brought you How Raven Got His Crooked Nose, this modern retelling of a traditional Denaina story teaches young readers that there is strength in humility and in doing what is right, especially when its hard. Also included is an authors note about Alaskan Denaina stories, plus a glossary of the Denaina words and their pronunciation.
