Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:
In the beginning there was only darkness... There was fire and ice... There was a single drop of milk. Combining elements of the creation story from different traditions, this narrative weaves together one complete picture of how the world began. It is a celebration of the many and varied peoples of the earth, of their commonalities and their differences. It is a celebration of life.
"In this companion to Glass Slipper, Gold Sandal, Paul Fleischman and Julie Paschkis turn to the universal story of creation"-- Provided by publisher.
The author draws from a variety of folk traditions to put together the story of creation, including elements from many cultures.
