This self-published book details a creation story through the eyes of a son with his father in a mountain wilderness. The story is largely based on the animals in the sky, and therefore many of the illustrations have a starry, aqua-blue-hued dreamy quality about them, while the spreads that detail the creation of individual elements of the earth are more visceral.
