Reply #14: And in the North West, Ravens! [View All]

[Sequoia]

There was a great children's book I would read to my daughter about how the sun came to earth. A madien went to draw water from the river and the raven turned himself into a seed or something and got in the water that she drank and she had a son. The people were so in love with this baby and let him do pretty much what he wanted. He went ga ga toddling over to the box where the sun was kept, picked up the sun, turned in a raven and flying up into the air flung it in the sky and the whole earth had the sun now.

Poor mom though, losing her son that way. I think we should introduce all cultures, Greek, Norse myths et al. They are so very interesting and make hollywood movies dull by comparison.
