Illustrated by
Hilary Knight.
Two books have been combined into one "flip-flop" volume, and Knight has hand-colored the original drawings with watercolor and pencil. Zolotow's girl and boy muse about the things their own children will be allowed to do (such as have new crayons even if the old ones are "still good and just not pointed anymore").

A companion volume to Echoes of the Elders, this gathering of five additional tales telling of the origins of phenomena such as daylight and darkness or the creation of sentient life is as compelling in style and format as its predecessor. The words are mesmerizing; the artwork is stunning; the whole is dramatically beautiful. A CD of Lelooska telling the stories is included.
