Yakari and the Great Eagle

Little Yakari from the Sioux tribe really wants to be like the Great Eagle. For the Sioux, this is not just a bird, but the progenitor and protector of the tribe. The adventures that await Yakari will require him to show courage and resourcefulness. As a result, the little Indian learns about his gift of understanding the language of animals and even receives a feather from the Great Eagle — as recognition that he, although small, is a true Sioux.

Fascinating stories about Yakari teach the child important human qualities: the ability to make friends and find common ground with everyone (including animals), to be brave, not to deviate from a set goal, and not to give up in case of failure. The theme of caring for nature runs throughout the series. In the world created by Job and Derib, we get to know various animals and learn how they live.

Simple, easy-to-understand texts are accompanied by colorful illustrations that will make reading attractive even for those children who are not used to reading. The book is suitable for both family reading and for the first independent reading.
