(3) K-3 In this capable retelling of a Native American creation myth, there is only Sky World (where people are) and Water World (where animals are) until Sky Girl falls through a hole in the sky, forcing the water animals to find a way for her to live. Unfussy mixed-media illustrations consisting of flat geometric shapes recall cut-paper collage. Websites. Bib.
