A Coyote Solstice Tale
A Coyote Solstice Tale | Thomas King
3 posts | 2 read | 2 to read
Winner of the American Indian Library Association Youth Literature Awards, Best Picture Book. Trickster Coyote is having his friends over for a festive solstice get-together in the woods when a little girl comes by unexpectedly. She leads the party-goers through the snowy woods to a shopping mall -- a place they have never seen before. Coyote gleefully shops with abandon, only to discover that fi lling your shopping cart with goodies is not quite the same thing as actually paying for them. The trickster is tricked and goes back to his cabin in the woods -- somewhat subdued -- though nothing can keep Coyote down for long.

This book is a winner of the American Indian Youth Literature Award. This is a book that includes rhyming as you read through it and portrays a great story and message. Great book and illustrations as well!

I seem to be in the minority on Goodreads, but I think this is frigging brilliant. It is so insightful that it is uncomfortable. The cartoony illustrations contrast perfectly. The coyote getting sucked into the consumer fever. The Proust reference. The little girl who is so desperate to escape the excess that she dresses as a reindeer. Like I said. Frigging brilliant.
