Coyote
What's Coyote About
In this tale, a boastful coyote wants to be like the crows he sees in the trees. He wants to be able to fly and soar like the beautiful birds. The crows, however, decide to play a trick on the coyote. They stick their feathers into the coyote and tell him this will help him to fly. Unfortunately, the coyote doesn’t exactly get what he had hoped for. This classic Pueblo tale explains how coyotes became gray in this mischievous story. Colorful illustrations and the importance of being yourself make this an engaging reader for young readers.

The Creatives Behind the Book
I grew up in a small town on top of the Palisades in New Jersey. From my bedroom window, I could see the famous skyscraper skyline of New York City. In the hot summer months I could hear the shrieks of people riding on the roller coaster at a nearby amusement park. My work has led me on many adventures in numerous countries. Traveling continues to be a major source of inspiration for my work as I render my impression of a country and its way of life in oil and gouache paintings. My greatest ambition is to instill pride and self-esteem in children about their unique heritage and their own ability to capture in it pictures and words.
