When Kameron moves to his grandma’s sheep camp on the Navajo Reservation, he leaves behind his cell phone reception and his friends. The young boy’s world becomes even stranger when Kameron takes the sheep out to the local windmill and meets an old storyteller. As the seasons turn, the old man weaves eight tales that teach the deeper story of the Diné country and the Diné people.
The tales plunge readers into Navajo lore. . . . Chapterbook readers will devour it, but don't overlook the opportunity to read it out loud, preferably while snuggling.

These tales capture the humor and themes of traditional Diné literature. . . . The collection resonates with deep cultural authenticity.--Enrique Lamadrid, author of Juan the Bear and the Water of Life: La Acequia de Juan del Oso
