| Natasha, is a nine year old Yurok girl, who has
grown up with her grandparents and is proud of her Indian heritage.
After Natasha learned her first Brush Dance song her grandparents started
gathering and preparing materials to make her a ceremonial dress. Learning
the appropriate etiquette and respect Natasha is raised knowing her
culture and therefore is secure with herself and .
Jack has written a much needed book about the Yurok (and Karuk &
Hupa) people. With so few materials available for/about Local Native
children this book is truly a MUST HAVE for any California Indian
Collection.
