Crow and the Waterhole

A fresh take on traditional, indigenous Australian storytelling, this volume tells the tale of Crow who lived in a tree by a waterhole and gazed into the water each morning at another wonderful crow staring back at her. Wishing to be like the black beauty in the water—one so special she could surely change the world—Crow flies far away, helping others, until she ultimately discovers that her inspiring feathered friend is actually her own reflection. Featuring vivid, jewel-toned illustrations based on indigenous paintings, this uplifting tale of self-perception conveys the importance of realizing one’s self-worth and individual strengths.
