Illustrated by

A young girl sacrifices her doll to bring rain to her people, who are too greedy to offer their own most precious posessions. Lind has retold the legend of the Texas state flower in formal language that stumbles with awkward phrasing and rhyme. The soft-edged acrylic paintings include many details of Comanche clothing, shelter, and artifacts. An author's note cites the story's origins.
