Overview

In the beginning, there was only silence-until Atabey, the Mother Goddess, emerged and shaped the heavens, the stars, and the first breath of creation. This is the world as told by the Taínos, the Indigenous people of the Caribbean whose ancestral homelands include Puerto Rico, Hispaniola, Cuba, Jamaica, and the Cayman Islands. This beautifully illustrated book brings the Taíno creation myth to life, reimagining the story of Atabey and her two sons, Yucajú and Guacar, and the forces that shaped the natural world. Rooted in the traditions of the Taínos of Puerto Rico, this retelling honors one of the oldest mythologies of the Caribbean and celebrates the cultural heritage of the author-illustrator's homeland. Perfect for readers interested
