From the Publisher
From the Flap Copy
"Artists have magic eyes. They see hidden things, things that look like other things, things that happened long ago. Native Americans have magic eyes, too. They see the spirits of animals and trees. They see that all creatures are related, owl and bear, toad and eagle, trout and elk."
In The Forest Has Eyes, children are invited to see with their magic eyes the many stories which artist Bev Doolittle layers into her award-winning paintings of native Americans and the western wilderness. In the painting The Forest Has Eyes, a mountain man passes carefully through Indian territory. He is alone, but he is surrounded by the faces of the Native Peoples, in the stones and in the thick, leafy branches of the forest.
In Spirit of the Grizzly, a young Blackfoot Indian, Brave Bear, rides alone searching for his animal guardian spirit, the bear, which will protect him and give him strength. In the dramatic painting which follows, artist Bev Doolittle shows his vision fulfilled.
And in Calling the Buffalo and Runs with Thunder, a Plains Indian is calling the buffalo chief spirit with secret words hopig the buffalo herds will follow. He sings a song to thank the buffalo whose meat will feed the hungry people and whose furs will keep them warm. The buffalo spirits are not far away. Can you see them in the water's reflection of the rocks?
Author Elise Maclay has written a perfect introduction to the spiritual ways of Native Americans, and an invitation for families to see with magic eyes, and understand the connection of all life to our human lives.
