About this book

How the Robin Got Its Red Breast: A Legend of the Sechelt People by Sechelt Nation. paperback edition. ISBN: 9780889711587.

These traditional teaching legends come straight from the oral traditions of the Sechelt Nation. Simple enough to be understood by young children, yet compelling enough for adults, they are gentle, beautifully presented cautionary tales. Youll want to read them again and again - and youll learn a few words of the Shishalh language while youre at it. Charlie Craigan is a young Sechelt artist who works in a tiny studio set up in his bedroom. He studied traditional wood carving with Sechelt Nation carvers, but learned to draw and paint by studying books.
