Rabbit and the Fingerbone Necklace

(4) K-3 Illustrated by Murv Jacob. In Duvall's original folktale based on Cherokee animal lore, the ravens try to acquire Rabbit's necklace, made of human finger bones. After a long journey, Rabbit begins to understand why the necklace must be returned to the ravens. Jacob's paintings in rich hues are beautifully detailed. The large amount of text on the pages may overwhelm readers.
