Dog Cry, a Chukchansi (Yokuts) Indian boy of the Sierra foothills, is told to watch his little sister. Instead he runs off with cousins for a mountain adventure.
Thrill turns to fear when Dog Cry discovers his sister has followed him—into the path of a mountain lion! Bravely, he saves the girl and earns a new name from tribal elders. Illustrated by the author with full-page watercolors. Notes explain place names, pronunciation, and Chukchansi tribal history.
