Ancient night / David Álvarez with David Bowles.

Bowles, David, (author.). Álvarez, David, (illustrator.).

Summary:

"Ancient Night is a twist on two Nahuatl traditions: the rabbit which the Feathered Serpent placed on the moon, and Yaushu, the Lord Opossum who ruled the earth before humans came, and who stole fire from the gods to create the sun. Award-winning author David Bowles has written a poetic text - and carefully researched backmatter - to accompany David's lush illustrations and story."-- Provided by publisher.
