Über die Autorinnen und Autoren

Brave Wolf and the Thunderbird is based on a story recounted by Joe Medicine Crow in All Roads Are Good: Native Voices on Life and Culture (Smithsonian Institution Press and NMAI). Grandson of a scout who rode with Custer, Mr. Medicine Crow was a highly respected elder, storyteller, and historian of the Crow people. The first member of his tribe to graduate from college, he earned an M.A. in anthropology. Mr. Medicine Crow was a World War II combat veteran, teacher, writer, and lecturer, who lived most of his life in his native Montana.

Linda R. Martin (Diné ), who lives in Tempe, Arizona, is a communications manager at Atlatl Inc., a national service organization for Native American arts. She holds a BFA in graphic design from Arizona State University, where she was active in organizations dedicated to the recruitment, retention, and academic success of Native Americans.

One day, a man named Brave Wolf went hunting in the hills. He did not return for several weeks, and when he came back to camp, he told his family and friends what had happened to him while he was gone.

While he was hunting, a huge Thunderbird flew over and snatched him up in her giant claws. She took him to a high cliff, overlooking a lake up in the mountains.
