From the Author:
more about the retelling of this legend
The Chippewa elder mentioned in my source notes reviewed the manuscript which was read to him. He made numerous changes to the text, including deletions of the sound I had given to identify the little duck as he walked down to his fishing hole. This resulted in a more formal retelling than I had first given it, but a far more authentic recorded version of this ancient tale.

Shingebiss the duck bravely challenges the Winter Maker and manages to find enough food to survive a long, harsh winter.
