"Native telling of the Windigo, the Night Spirit of Winter, told by an uncle elder to two Aboriginal cousins, and the tracking of the feared creature into the forest. This illustrated story is populated with raven, moose and other forest animals, the Spirit Moon and a cold winter night; a heartwarming story of family, love, togetherness and respect for the environment."-- Non sono state trovate descrizioni di biblioteche |

The Spirit Trackers is the second picture-book I have read from Waboose (the first being her SkySisters), and I found it quite enjoyable. Although not a retelling of a traditional folktale about the Windigo, I did add my folklore tags, given that the original story here centers around a belief in this spirit, and the folk traditions surrounding that belief. The story itself is engrossing, sure to please young children who enjoy ghost stories and other frightening fare, and the artwork, done by François Thisdale, is appealing. Recommended to anyone looking for picture-books with a Native American/First Nations cultural background, for stories about the Windigo, or for tales featuring young people working through their fears.
