"Thunderbird's Biggest Storm" is a beautifully illustrated children's book that tells the story of the powerful Thunderbird, a revered figure in Coast Salish mythology. Adapted by Tinoy James, this enchanting tale captures the essence of a traditional legend with vibrant, modern cartoon-style artwork. The story begins in a time when the world was very dry, and plants and animals were suffering. Thunderbird, the strongest bird with the biggest wings, sees the plight of the land and decides to help. Through his mighty flaps, he brings the loudest thunder, the brightest lightning, and the heaviest rain, transforming the land into a lush, green paradise. The people and animals rejoice and celebrate Thunderbird as their hero. This book is dedicated to the loving memory of Lisa "Sotia" Williams, with her inspiring quote, "Shoot for the moon because even if you miss, you'll land amongst the stars." With engaging text and striking illustrations, this book is perfect for young readers and educators looking to introduce children to indigenous culture and language concepts, including superlatives, in an engaging way. The story is written in simple English, making it accessible for early learners and a valuable addition to any educational collection.
