Con colores vibrantes y formas geométricas audaces, Gerald McDermott captura con maestría la estética estilizada del arte indígena Pueblo en esta narración de una antigua leyenda, ganadora del Premio Caldecott. Un niño busca a su padre, pero antes de poder reclamar su herencia, debe demostrar su valía atravesando las cuatro cámaras ceremoniales: la kiva de los leones, la kiva de las serpientes, la kiva de las abejas y la kiva del rayo. Impresionante por su simplicidad y gracia, Flecha al Sol evoca vívidamente la reverencia de los nativos americanos por la fuente de toda vida: el Fuego Solar.

With vibrant colors and bold geometric forms, Gerald McDermott brilliantly captures the stylized look of Pueblo Indian art in this Caldecott Award-winning retelling of an ancient legend. A young boy searches for his father, but before he can claim his heritage he must first prove his worthiness by passing through the four ceremonial chambers: the kiva of lions, the kiva of snakes, the kiva of bees, and the kiva of lightning. Striking in its simplicity and grace, Arrow to the Sun vividly evokes the Native American reverence for the source of all life—the Solar Fire.
