Publisher Description: A fresh take on traditional, indigenous Australian storytelling, this volume tells the tale of Crow who lived in a tree by a waterhole and gazed into the water each morning at another wonderful crow staring back at her. Wishing to be like the black beauty in the water--one so special she could surely change the world--Crow flies far away, helping others, until she ultimately discovers that her inspiring feathered friend is actually her own reflection. Featuring vivid, jewel-toned illustrations based on indigenous paintings, this uplifting tale of self-perception conveys the importance of realizing one's self-worth and individual strengths. |
