How Raven Brought Light to People is a mischievous story about a raven who tricks a great chief into giving him the sun, moon, and stars by turning himself into a pine needle and then a baby born to the chief’s daughter. It also explains why ravens are black. The story is playful and traditional and the illustrations support this through color and supporting details. This is a great story to include in place-based literacy in the classroom.
