Dance
on a Sealskin by Barbara Winslow

In today's
Alaskan Yupik Eskimo communities,
villagers still gather in the kashim
to sing, drum, and dance, carrying
forward the ancient traditions
of their forebears. This is the
heartwarming fictional story
of
Annie's "first dance", a coming-of-age
ceremony to signify official entry into
the Eskimo community. 20 color illustrations
"This
book combines powerful writing and vivid
illustrations to capture the joy of giving
and sharing among the Yupik."
