Author Antoinette Sarcinella Debuts Her Native American Children's Folklore Story, Wolf & Owl Remember

Antoinette Sarcinella's Wolf & Owl Remember is an entertaining read delivering profound wisdom that will not only be enjoyed by children, but adults reading it with them.

Chester, NS (PRWEB) February 3, 2008 -- Author Antoinette Sarcinella reaches into her Native American Folklore history to create her new children's story presented as an ancient lesson of wisdom to help with today's world problems. Antoinette draws on her own Hunkpapa Lakota and Assiniboine heritage to bring her book, Wolf & Owl Remember, to a level that all cultures can identify with. Kumi, a young boy full of spirit and curiosity, comes across an injured bird. In a compassionate effort to help the bird, Kumi takes it home. The bird recognizes Kumi's innocent eagerness for knowledge and introduces him to a Wolf and Owl. The animals take Kumi on a mystical journey through space and time where they and other animals share their stories of life.

The stories are rich with symbolism as each animal delivers important messages of harmony, unity, peace, and most importantly, hope. The dialogue is effective in that the animals tell their stories in such a simplistic and charming way that a child would easily understand. The vivid descriptions that entail the use of colors, emotions, and the natural world and its beauty, will inspire children to tap into their imaginations. The vibrant and artistic illustrations by Joseph Wolves Kills add to the story making it a more engaging and enjoyable read. Readers will feel as though they are traveling with Kumi and the animals, experiencing and understanding their feelings, thoughts, and the principle message that we must not forget that underneath all of our differences, we are all connected to each other as well as the planet.

This is Antoinette's first book that delves into the myth and folklore genre of depicting the individual uniqueness of animals. She takes a distinctive approach to this genre by applying the messages to today's problems. Hopefully there are more books to follow as the author clearly has the creativity of developing the writing success of such folklore story tellers as Joseph and James Bruchac. Wolf & Owl Remember is an entertaining read that delivers profound wisdom that will not only be enjoyed by children, but adults reading it with them.
