As retold by the celebrated Khanty author Yeremei Aipin, translated into English by his daughter, Marina, and splashed with the colorful illustrations by renowned Khanty artist Gennady Raishev, these stories will carry you into a world familiar yet faraway, where all the creatures of the Siberian forests--birds, beasts, and people--made a common home."--Andrew Wiget, New Mexico State University"Alive with the spirit of Indigenous northern places, these untrue (true) tales about the animals, birds, and fish who share the Khanty and Mansi lands near the Arctic Circle have many things to teach us about being human. Through them, we learn the origin of mosquitoes, how not to cook a Sandpiper, and why our bear brothers and sisters are the same, especially when it's time to stand up and fight the monsters that crash and roar through the trees. The words by Yeremei Aipin have fins, backbones, and beaks, and the illustrations by Gennady Raishev are endearing and authentic."--Staci L. Drouillard, author of Walking the Old Road: A People's History of Chippewa City and the Grand Marais Anishinaabe"From the dense taiga forests and the sparkling waterways of the Khanty in Siberia emerge the ancient voices of Cuckoo Mother, Rosy Cranberry, and Sandpiper. Paki the Bear ambles along through the forest into his own story of life and death. These folktales express the core Khanty value of kinship with animals and spirits in the natural world. Yeremei Aipin's stellar writing is complemented by Gennady Raishev's rich watercolor illustrations."--Susan Scarberry-García, Institute of American Indian Arts ABOUT THE AUTHORYeremei Aipin, the son of a hunter and fisherman, was born in the village of Varyogan in West Siberia in 1948. Ethnically, he is of the Khanty people. As a young man he worked in the Siberian oil fields, then as a carpenter, before turning to creative writing at the Literary University in Moscow. Subsequently, he spent a decade at the Center for the Native Arts in Khanty-Mansiisk, where he later established the Native Heritage Park, a museum and sacred-place memorial known as Torurn Maa. Much of Aipin's career has been devoted to politics, working on behalf of the Khanty people as a member of the Duma, the parliament of the Russian State. He is the editor of a monthly newspaper, The Word of the Peoples of the North. His writing has been translated into German, Fin.
