The Gift review

The Gift is a simple story of sharing and respect enhanced by Barbara Lavalle's gorgeous watercolor illustrations. This story demostrates the connection Alaskans have with their home and its creatures. A great story to introduce sea creatures to young children.
Delightful story of the northwest
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 24 years ago
Jimmy Joe is thrilled when the fish woman, who some believe is a witch, invites him to go fishing. Jimmy Joe catches a large salmon and puts it on ice where it dies. When whales appear, he offers it to them for food. Although Jimmy Joe wants to see the whales again, they disappear and he and the fish woman continue their trip to catch "stew fish" for Jimmy Joe's mother. This delightful story is enhanced by vibrant watercolor illstrations that capture the beauty of the northwest.
