[ 책 소개 ]
Caldecott 수상작가인 David Wisniewski 특유의 색종이를 오려서 만든 아름다운 그림책입니다.
오래전 틀링깃족이 사는 섬에 Kchokeen이라는 어린 소녀가 있었습니다. 아름다운 외모 만큼이나 뛰어난 지혜로 사람들에 인정받고 있던 그녀는 어느날 새먼베리라는 열매를 주우러 친구들과 가기로 했습니다. 바다로 들어가지 말라는 어른들의 말씀대로 아이들은 숲에서 열매를 주웠습니다. 커다란 통나무에 올라가 있던 Kchokeen은 나무의 텅빈 구멍속으로 빠지고 말았습니다. 통나무 속에 들어있던 Kchokeen는 갑자기 풍랑이 일어 물에 휩쓸려 내려갈 뻔했지만 가까스로 무사할 수 있었습니다. 그리고 인디언 부족의 평화로운 나날들이 흘러가던 어느날... 바다 저 멀리에서 커다란 파도가 밀려오기 시작했습니다. 그리고 거대하고 검은 물체가 다가왔습니다. 인디언들이 바다의 늑대(Sea-Wolf)라고 칭한 배는 외국의 침략선이었습니다. 마을을 공격하는 커다란 배에 맞서 인디언들은 카누를 타고 대항하는데...
평화로운 인디언 마을을 침략하는 유럽의 정복자들의 갑작스런 출현과 인디언들과의 충돌을 담담하고 문학적인 어조로 설명해 줍니다. 종이를 잘라서 만든 그림이 옛날 인디언들이 살았던 마을의 전통적인 모습과 복장 및 자연의 모습을 특색있게 보여줍니다.

Publisher's Weekly
Drawing on myths of the Tlingit people of the Pacific Northwest, Wisniewski's (Sundiata: Lion King of Mali) dramatic tale combines folklore with history, describing the Tlingit respect for the earth and the people's first encounters with European explorers. After Kchokeen, a princess, is blessed with a vision of the mighty Sea-Wolf, she has the ability to predict the terrible ocean storms that have claimed so many lives in the past. For a time, her village lives safely, trading with newly arrived foreigners, but war breaks out when the outsiders turn greedy. Kchokeen must turn the power of Sea-Wolf against them in order to save her own people. Vivid storytelling is complemented by textured cut-paper illustrations that paint the forest landscape in lacy layers. Their intricacy captures the strength and dangerous beauty of the ocean, while slender silhouettes of trees against the moon are calmly awe-inspiring. Wisniewski's ability to convey both high drama and simple emotion lends a sense of authenticity to this original tale. A wise and appealing picture book. Ages 5-9. (Sept.)

Children's Literature
Wisniewski presents a Tlingit story from the far northwest of what is now the United States. In addition to being a tale of the Tlingit nation, it involves the first contact with white explorers, and how the culture was changed forever. The cut-paper pictures are superb. - Judy Silverman

Gr 3-6-How did a war canoe come to rest high in a cedar tree? This mystery leads into the story of the Tlingit princess Kchokeen who, courting danger, has a vision of the mighty spirit Gonakadet (the Sea-Wolf), maker of huge waves. Learning that a bear's howl precedes the wave, she predicts periods of risk, and so her people prosper. One day, however, white traders appear and destroy the village. Kchokeen appeals to the Sea-Wolf, and then lures the traders' ship into the frothing wave that engulfs it. Her own canoe is carried high into a tree. Kchokeen has saved her people this time, but the foreigners continue to invade, and she resolves to carry on the old ways until this new danger also passes. Wisniewski's original story is based on a Tlingit legend, and his art, too, combines the original and the traditional. The illustrations are elaborate cut-paperwork, and their intricacy (especially in leaf and wave forms) contributes to an impressive 3-dimensional effect. Ethnic representation of the characters is convincing, but most remarkable of all is the use of native Northwest design motifs. Not only expected objects-canoes, paddles, boxes, and garments-are adorned with adapted but authentic-looking decoration, but also the text on each page is surmounted with a border of varying design. A lengthy endnote discusses the history and legend-and the contemporary message-behind Wisniewski's entertaining and instructive creation.- Patricia (Dooley) Lothrop Green, St. George's School, Newport, RI |
