Eagle Drums
Nasuġraq Rainey Hopson
Chapter Book (8-12)
Eagle Drums by Nasuġraq Rainey Hopson is part cultural folklore, part origin myth about the Iñupiaq Messenger Feast, a Native Arctic tradition that is still celebrated in times of bounty among the Iñupiaq. This story is based on the oral tradition of how Iñupiaq people were given the gift of music, song, dance, community, and everlasting connection. Hopson’s full-page illustrations and spot art, rendered in colored pencil, accompany this memorable story.
