(2) K-3 Illustrated by Julie Flett. Brothers Joe and Cody, with their family, spend summers camping on Manitoba's hundreds of lakes. The boys' favorite pets are dragonflies, which they fly like magic kites on thread--only to find them again in their dreams. Highway's bilingual English/Cree text (cleanly incorporated into the elegant page design) has a graceful simplicity, and Flett's new illustrations enhance it with quiet colors and textures.
