BLOOMINGTON, Ind. - Nov. 8, 2013 - PRLog -- The Otter, the Spotted Frog, and the Great Flood

Retold by Gerald Hausman, Illustrated by Ramon Shiloh

Now Available

When Spotted Frog tells of a great flood that is about to destroy their homes, all of the animals ignore his warnings, except Listener the Otter. Ridiculed by the other animals, Listener heeds Spotted Frog’s predictions and begins to build a raft to try and survive the impending disaster. But will his efforts be enough?

This charming children’s book warns us to listen to the wisdom of nature and the environment. Based on a traditional story from the Creek Indians of northern Florida and Georgia, The Otter, the Spotted Frog & the Great Flood is retold by award-winning author and storyteller Gerald Hausman, and is brought to life by the powerful images of Ramon Shiloh.

This universal tale is full of traditional Native American wisdom, which seems even more farsighted in our own day and age, with the conditions of global warming and other environmental threats that confront us more and more.

Besides being an editor, a teacher, and a storyteller, Gerald Hausman is also the author of many picture books, sixteen of which have won awards. His many books focus particularly on Native American themes and animal mythology, among other topics.

American author, illustrator, and storyteller Ramon Shiloh was born in Northern California. Shiloh has worked with a number of collaborators to produce books and works in other media. Ramon Shiloh authored and illustrated the book Guidance through an Illustrative Alphabet.
