Paul's Bunion: A Tall Tale Resized - Hardcover

by Dawn Quigley (Author), Chief Lady Bird (Illustrator)

A laugh-out-loud retelling of Paul Bunyan's tall tales from a distinctly Native American perspective--from Dawn Quigley, the author of the award-winning Jojo Makoons series, and fine artist Chief Lady Bird. You've heard those tall tales about that giant lumberjack, Paul Bunyan, his big blue ox named Babe, and his girlfriend, Sally Anne Thunder Anne Whirlwind. How he created the Grand Canyon by dragging his axe, scooped out the hole for Lake Superior, and other feats of incredible strength that supposedly created the American landscape. But you haven't heard the real story, told by the indigenous people who lived in this so-called wilderness. Now you can! Including the true story of how Paul got his last name!
