Rocks, grass, trees, birds--what can they possibly teach human beings?
Paul Wahasaypa knows that Ena Makoochay (Mother Earth) gives us many things. Though there's no way to prepare for this compelling nature journey with his mom, Ena--the same journey she took with her father when she was a girl. Beautiful illustrations and powerful words illuminate how strength, generosity, kindness, and humility may be shown to us by grandfather rocks, towering trees, four-legged ones, and winged ones, reminding us of the part we have to play in this amazing creation. We only need open our eyes, ears, heart, and mind to the spirit, voice, and teachings of Ena Makoochay and all of her children.
