Pair this book with Eric Kimmel's telling of The Frog Princess. Both aboriginal-themed picture books focus on humans who leave their tribes and feel more at home with an animal species. The books could lead to some interesting discussions about aboriginal attitudes to non-human animals. (

Summary: This book is Native American folktale about a seal boy. The parents lose him in the ocean and then he becomes a seal. They find him and he doesnt want to return to human life he just wants to be a seal.
Opinion: This book was definitely strange. I don't think it really teaches any lessons. Maybe to just not miss people? (

This book captured me in the way its historical context related to the storyline. I never realized the connection between seals and Native American culture, but its a beautiful relationship retold from Chinook folklore.
