Raven has been present since the beginning of time and the formation of man. One day while flying, the raven makes an incredible discovery. However, when he shares the news, no one believes him. Determined to prove himself, the raven finds his purpose and accomplishes something amazing. Belly on the Water is an African-American folklore origin story about self-doubt, self-confidence, determination, purpose, forgiveness, and change. Beautifully told and illustrated, it is a message of hope and overcoming, and of light and darkness. While written for children between late elementary and middle school, readers between 9 and 99 will be stirred by this thought-provoking story. This book is not meant to be read and shelved. It's meant to be used as a way to facilitate conversations with children, whether you're a parent, teacher, or therapist. It's meant to be a tool for guiding youth and their families through tough periods. If they are beyond the tough period, it should help prepare for the next tough period, by providing a strategy and game plan.
