For the first time, Pauline Johnson's "The Two Sisters," a First Nations legend, is accompanied by serene and compelling illustrations. From the much-loved twentieth-century
Canadian classic Legends of Vancouver, "The Two Sisters" was first told to celebrated poet and performer Pauline Johnson (Tekahionwake) by Joe Capilano, chief of the Squamish Nation.
The universal themes of creation, courage, peace, and reconciliation run through this heart-warming tale from a time long before Vancouver existed. Guided by the spellbinding words of Pauline Johnson, illustrator Sandra Butt paints a remarkable portrait of two little sisters who grow up to be courageous young women who help to bring about peace and brotherhood.
