Hiawatha and the Peacemaker

48 pp. | Abrams | September, 2015 | Trade ISBN 978-1-4197-1220-3 $19.95
(3) 4-6 Illustrated by David Shannon. Music legend Robertson, of Mohawk and Cayuga heritage, retells an ancient story of the Great Peacemaker who, with the help of Hiawatha, unites five warring Iroquois nations. The story is quite dark and complex, as the chiefs struggle to overcome their anger at past violence. Shannon's dramatic paintings show the Peacemaker standing stoically, surrounded by chaos. A musical CD is included.
