Siha Tooskin Knows the Sacred Eagle Feather

Siha Tooskin Knows

by Charlene Bearhead, Wilson Bearhead, Chloe Bluebird Mustooch (Illustrator)

For as long as Paul could remember there were eagle feathers around him…but how had they come to be in all of those places in his life?

Paul Wahasaypa—Siha Tooskin—already knows that the eagle is important because of the way that his family respects and cares for eagle feathers. Now he’s old enough for the teachings of where the feathers come from and why they are so sacred. Walk with Paul and Mitoshin (his grandfather) so you too will understand the teaching of the sacred eagle feather.
 
The Siha Tooskin Knows series uses vivid narratives and dazzling illustrations in contemporary settings to share stories about an 11-year-old Nakota boy.

[Autumn Kearney · Rating 5 out of 5]

This book gives us good reminders. We need to sleep well, get up early, give thanks, eat healthy, and remember that the earth is sacred. The storyline is 5 stars. The illustrations are 5 stars as well.

The Siha Tooskin series are a great introduction for children and adult alike, to the culture, tradition, and language of the Nakota Indigenous Peoples.
