There was no light in the world. People lived in darkness. Then Raven came.

Raven, the trickster, wants to give people the gift of light. But can he find out where Sky Chief keeps it? And if he does, will he be able to escape without being discovered? It seems impossible, but if anyone can find a way to bring light to the world, wise and clever Raven can!

In his unique style, master storyteller Gerald McDermott deftly combines simple, rhythmic language and dazzling art influenced by designs from the Pacific Northwest to bring this traditional Native American story to life.
