Storyteller Skye cover

Have you ever wondered why Rabbit has such long ears? Or why Raccoon is wearing a mask? 

In this collection of funny and unique short stories, young Skye enlightens us in a number of Indigenous teachings, passed down to her from her Ojibway Grandfather. Through her natural gift of storytelling, Skye encourages other children to embrace the art and become storytellers, too!  


Medicine Wheel Publishing is committed to sharing diverse voices and perspectives, creating a platform for stories that celebrate Indigenous cultures and inspire understanding and respect among readers of all ages.

Skye, a girl living in an Indigenous community, draws a crowd with her stories, which were first told to her by her grandfather. Skye relays five stories, all focused on animals and all with a unique message and moral. The expressive faces of the animals and people add humor and charm to the soft watercolor illustrations. The book ends with a reminder of the connective power of stories, urging other children to become storytellers themselves.
