In this story, Cree dancers come together to participate in the round dance. While the art makes good use of color, the text (printed in English and Cree) lacks a cohesive thread and the narrator is not distinctive enough. However, those studying Native language or music will appreciate the included bilingual CD of the story accompanied by Northern Cree, a pow-wow group.
