Great Sky Woman (2006)
“Frog thought the rain a perfect match for the miserable mood following his beating. The sight of Wind and Water bomas’ folk dancing and cheering the downpour was wearying, and he was happy when, after three days, most of the others shared his opinion that the gods had offered them entirely too much of a good thing.
The dream dancers finally found the right song, sang it with enough heart and fervor to birth a sun strong enough to banish the water from the sky.
Then, under the critical eye of Un...cle Snake and his hunt chief brothers, Frog practiced rolling and jumping in the mud, wincing at his sore back and shoulders. Still, he did the best he could and kept up with most of the others. There were many different types of play, all of them preparing the boys for wrestling: baboon jumping, snake crawling, elephant walking and more. They wrestled, practiced making their arrows and ran races.
But during this entire time the adult males were conferring in private, arguing and dancing their opinions beneath the Life Tree.MoreLess
