In response to an Indian boy's prayer for help for his hungry people, the Great Spirit sends the gift of the Sacred Dogs (horses), which enable the tribe to hunt for buffalo.

A brave boy goes into the hills and prays for help for his people. A rider on a magnificent animal comes to him and says: "This animal is called the Sacred Dog. He can do many things your dogs can do and also more... He is as the wind: gentle but sometimes frightening." The clouds close and suddenly one by one countless Sacred Dogs course down from the sky. And so the courage of one determined boy is rewarded by the Great Spirit: The Horse, Sacred Dog, is given to his tribe.

Profusely illustrated in full color in Paul Goble's signature style.
