(4) K-3 Illustrated by Johnson Yazzie. Cinnibah sets out to have her mother's metate (grinding stone) repaired. Along the way, she meets the moccasin maker and potter, who help her find the stone cutter. Though wordy, this bilingual story, in English and Navajo, has warmth. The accompanying illustrations highlight the Southwest's earthy clay tones.
